Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 135137

Assuming you hibernate (Mozilla is still running) on machine A. The profile is
located on a local server. On machine B you are using the same profile and start
up Mozilla which works though Mozilla is still running using the profile on
machine A (in hibernation). Then resume from hibernation on machine A. Mozilla
then runs on both machines sharing the same profile which probably results in
misbehaviours. For example i noticed skinning flaws. Probably this can cause
corrupted profiles.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run mozilla on machine A and hibernate
2. run mozilla on machine B with the same profile
3. resume from hibernation on machine A
Actual Results:  
mozilla on machine A and on machine B are using the same profile at the same time.

Expected Results:  
Profile should be locked.

Actually the profile should be never locked because it is very frustrating if
you forget to close mozilla when hibernating on machine A and try to start
mozilla on machine B. Rather Mozilla should support profile sharing. Currently
Mozilla refuses to use the profile if a mozilla instance on another machine uses
the same profile.
