Finding version of firefox in directory
I have a unique situation, I have a RHEL OS but also a file path that has a OS image (it is not the image running on the machine) if I run fire fox -version it will give me the version of the actively installed FF however I need to know if the version of FF sitting in the non active path is the same version of the one installed. Any ideas?

shows the threads but not what they are connected to. The purpose of this is that some sites run nasty cpu eating programs and trying to figure out which ones.
