How can I share the same Firefox profiles / settings among multiple users on Windows XP?

I am installing Firefox on Windows XP and have imported all settings, add-ons, etc, from a previous installation.

I did the installation under the Admin account, but I would like to have the same settings and everything else available to some of the other users on the machine (but not all). How can I do this?

Thanks.

I understand what is in and where the profiles are, but my issue is that I want Firefox to let me use the same profile whether, for example, I am logged onto the XP system as "Admin" or "User1" I do not want to share the same profile for all users of the machine, just specific users, and I do not want to have to duplicate all of the information that is in the profile in each of the specific user's Application Data settings folders under XP (C:\Documents and Settings\USER-NAME\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[profile-name]) for the user's in question.

Am I making sense here?

Thanks,

-Danny

You can use Firefox Sync to share data among different user accounts.
