can I redirect where firefox saves data (book marks, cookies, etc...)
I am currently using a product called Deep Freeze on my desktop which resets the computer back to the "pre-frozen" setting when restarted. The issue I am having is that I can not retain the bookmarks, history, cookies and other saved data when browsing with Firefox. I was able to redirect IE but cant seem to figure out how to easily do this with Firefox.

You can do this by creating a new profile and choosing a custom location for the profile folder.
To create a new profile follow the instructions in the creating a new Firefox profile on Windows article, but as a last step you need to click on the Choose Folder button to specify where the profile will be stored.
A warning concerning where you create this profile folder.
(Copied from mozillazine knowledge base) A new profile folder is not automatically created when you choose the folder location for your new Firefox profile. Whatever folder you select will become the profile folder. If you want to choose a custom location for your new profile, do not select a folder that contains existing data. You must create a new, empty folder (preferably with the same name as the new profile) and then choose that folder in the Create Profile Wizard. Note: If your operating system does not provide a "New Folder" button within the Create Profile Wizard, you will need to manually create the new folder.
If the folder you select for the new profile contains non-Mozilla files (such as the "My Documents" folder on Windows), your profile data will be intermingled with the non-Mozilla data. This can result in the loss of all of the data in that folder, including non-Mozilla files, if you later delete the profile.
For further information on the profile manager and using profiles see Profile Manager - MozillaZine Knowledge Base and Profile Manager - Create, remove or switch Firefox profiles.
