Proxy for zip version

Hi everybody.
I want to have many installations of Firefox on my PC, to access different
proxies. I downloaded the zip version of Firefox 3.0, unpacked it and
executed. After having updated it to the 3.0.1 version, I was trying to set
a proxy in the advanced network options. I'm able to set it, but if I do it
all the installations of Firefox on my PC will use that configuration to
access the internet.
Is it possible to set the proxy only for one installation of Firefox? I
quickly browsed the firefox directory and I found a file called
"browserconfig.properties"... Probably adding a certain line to the
file...???

Thanks and sorry for my bad English

Hi,
you could as well us the add-on FoxyProxy. This add-on makes it possible
to change the proxy as you wish. And you don't even need many firefox
installations on your PC.
