Chosen solution

Use the -no-remote command line switch to open another Firefox instance with its own profile and to run different Firefox instances simultaneously.

Hi,

You could try using two (or more) profiles. You can also Sync personal data, settings etc. between the profiles, or you could do it manually. You can choose either Private browsing or the normal browsing, anyways the personal data, cookies, cache etc. are isolated from each other unless you choose to sync or copy manually.

well, i did try it, created two profiles, the only problem seem you can not run both profiles on the same computer, unlike you can do with chrome. Maybe i should redifine my question, Is it possible to start, two completely different sessions of firefox.?? so one sesion has no idea what the other sesion is doing,
