Hi all -

Instead of firing up FF and then clicking on the toolbar icon - "Open a Private Browsing Window" every time, is there a way to create a Desktop Shortcut to click on which brings up FF in Private Browsing mode?

Perhaps I can place it in my quick launch toolbar.

Also -

Is it possible to set a default "homepage" for Private Browsing mode?

Any help always appreciated. Thanks.

Create a new desktop shortcut for Firefox. Edit the Target line in Properties by adding a space and then -private at the end of that line.

You can add the -private-window switch to the command line of a Firefox desktop shortcut to open a new private mode window.
