After restarting computer (Win 7 64 bit) new profiles in firefox and thunderbird created. Old profiles still there. May have been a Windows update (don't recall) at shut-down. Perhaps a clue Win 7 desktop ini file changed and this occurred: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330132 New computer install in use 2-3 days.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== After restart

Additional info: no restore point so Windows did not update

Solution: The profiles.ini file had changed for both Thunderbird and Firefox. I manually edited both profiles.ini files and changed the profile path back to the correct profile. For example I changed : Path=Profiles/bbwyygfp.default to: Path=Profiles/k5adm39.default Would mark this as solved if I knew how.....

Further update: Roaming profiles somehow was enabled and settings were being overwritten.
