Two separate profiles seem to be sharing the same history

I have two different profiles for firefox, but they seem to be sharing the same history. One is my default profile. My XP shortcut to that is '"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P default'. The other profile's shortcut is '"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P secondary -no-remote'. I put in the "no-remote" argument because I read that was the only way to run two profiles at once.

The problem is, I find that the history of the secondary profile shows up as part of the history of the default profile and visa verse. While I haven't experimented in great detail, I *think* they only share if they're both loaded at once, but that if I just run one, close it, then run the other, that their histories won't bleed into each other.

How do I stop this from happening?

Make sure that you first open the default profile before opening the secondary profile.

I always have the default profile opened first.

Do both versions link to a different profile folder location?

They each have their own profile folder. But I should note I do use a single folder for add-ons, C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\extensions.

In that case the profiles shouldn't share history unless you synchronize them via Sync.

I didn't even realize Sync synced histories. I just turned that off, so hopefully that's the problem and it will be fine from now on. Thanks.
