What you could do is have seperate copies of Firefox
for each person .


If you download Firefox Portable from



Extract Firefox Portable into

C:\Programs Files\Firefox Portable for person 1

Then extract it again and this time choose

C:\Programs Files\Firefox Portable for person 2

Create shortcuts for each Firefox portable on the desktop
(Create shortcut by going into the directory by using
my computer and right click on the firefox exe and choose
send shortcut to desktop)

I kinda like XP... when you disable the unneccessary services it boots fast and is very stable. drinking

TONES of information exist on a web search on what
services to turn on and off manualy but it can effect
Windows booting up .


If you are an in-experiance Computer user then check out
a free open source program called XPY , its good
to remove services

XPY:

XPY is a free opensource program that speeds and secures
Windows 2000 PRO (32bit) , Windows 2003 (32bit) and Windows XP Home/Pro (32bit)

Choose all settings then de tick:
Disable Media Sensing for TCP , you want that left on
Delete Most recent history , you want that left on
Disable Recent shares in Network , you want that left on
Disable Showing last user . you want that left on
and tick everything else , choose no to download firefox
(Unless you are using IE then get Firefox or Portable Firefox)
and Reboot
