I use the same external usb hard drive on two computers (home and work). I would like to be able to install firefox on both PCs and use the same profile so I get all my bookmarks, accounts etc identically on both machines.

hello iangiom, the portable firefox version should work well for your scenario (it's provided by a third-party & not mozilla directly): http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
