The old "profile service" was part of the Mozilla suite/seamonkey, and is not used by Firefox or any toolkit applications. Incidentally, mfcembed is a really bad starting point for embedding and the code has been removed from the Mozilla trunk codebase. I strongly suggest starting with either winembed or the activex control. --BDS _______________________________________________ dev-embedding mailing list dev-embedding@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-embedding
