Don't build the fox, just walk in the minefield

Intentions
* Download the latest build from [ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk]
* Check the numbering of the file names ('''firefox-3.0a3pre''' is later than '''firefox-3.0a2pre'''), the OS ('''.win32.''' foe windows , '''.linux-i686t.''' for linux and '''.mac.''' for MacOS)
* There's three files to download a ZIP file, an installer and a Mozilla Update(.complete.mar - I THINK); Just download the installer and run it. The file I downloaded was "firefox-3.0a3pre.en-US.win32.installer.exe"
* NOTE: If at any point you run Firefox2 and then you try to open Minfield(codename for Firefox3), you will just end up running another window of Firefox2 (I will explain later how to run both at the same time)
 
I'm trying to run Firefox and Minefield at the same time.
Dave told me something about --no-remote - Profilemanager and I know I've seen it in the Dive into Mozilla course
