Multiple Users at Once?

Hello,

I'm trying to use Firefox portable for a backwards reason that it was probably designed. I want to put it on a network drive and allow multiple people to access it at the same time. The first person can launch the program with no problems. Each person thereafter will get this error:

"Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you much first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system".

Any thoughts?

run locally

by the sounds of it when firefox starts it is checking if the profile is in use and when the second person launches FFP it does this check fails and closes
the only idea i can think of is copy the FirefoxPortable.ini from \FirefoxPortable\Other\Source to \FirefoxPortable\ and change RunLocally=false to RunLocally=true this should help

if you have any more problems just reply and im sure somone will help
