Moz 1.5 backups to FireFox and TBird

Without getting into detail, my XP will be coming from the shop with a fresh XP install and baby clean. Have full backups for Moz 1.5 on CD. Would like to move to Firefox and TBird. Prefer to create new profile/settings, but I did not catch any "copy to folder" techniques in TBird FAQ. Does the same process for N7's / Mozilla 1.x's work for TBird?. I generally set up my mail accounts "identical' to previous view. Close, open, and close the program to lock it down and then copy in the non-indexed mail files. Any problems with this approach?
As far as FireFox, just install and set the settings to my hearts delight.. and copy in bookmarks, right?
_______ BACKUPs ________
With N7's / Moz 1.x's I backuped the entire profile folder.
For TBird, should I do the same, just for simplicity sake?
What do I backup for FFox, since it would just be preference settings, correct?

 

Dennis,

Please keep us posted on how it goes....

Enquireing minds want to know.

Hi Capt'n

Just keep an eye on the thread. Hopefully it won't be to bumpy, with a minimum of "oh no" - and- "why did I do that ". Like they say, getting there is half the fun.
