Yeah, I was browsing in FireFox, when I went for breakfast, so I closed FF down. When I came back to meh PC and loaded up FF, a Profiles box came up. I had been using "default" since I downloaded FF, so I chose default. But it said it was already in use, so I couldn't use it. It made me create a new profile, and I've lost my themes, bookmarks, settings, etc..

How do I switch back to the "default" profile?

The EXACT thing happened to me ages ago. I just used a new profile.

Geh, OK then. I'll just have to tweak this profile 'til it's like the old one.

CTRL + ALT + Delete. Shut down all firefox.exe tasks under the processes tab (there should be two) and start it up again.
