User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050919 Firefox/1.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050919 Firefox/1.0.7
Mainly, I use FF version 1.5 on my machine.
For testing purposes, I just installed the new released 1.0.7 version on same
computer.
I wonder, that these both browser work together on the same computer.
I can run firefox 1.0.7 OR firefox 1.5 without any trouble.
BUT, if firefox 1.0.7 is opened and I start the firefox 1.5 exe file, it opens
another window with firefox 1.0.7 and not firefox 1.5!
It seems, that these both versions can't run together.
Either, there should be a message that both browser-version can't run together
or there should be a fix that you can run both versions together at the same time!
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open firefox 1.0.7
2. open firefox 1.5
3. a new window with firefox 1.0.7 appears

You can only run 1 Firefox at the same time

This is actually a feature, since you couldn't use both versions (or two instances
of the same version) at the same time with the same profile anyway, and showing
the profile manager in this case would be confusing to most users.
