I want to have one dedicated Firefox browser that i can use for normal browsing and a separate one that i can clear cookies etc. and not worry about saving anything. Is it easy to setup 2 different browsers?

Just use IE explorer for your second one.

I have PortableTor set up on a USB thumbdrive so everything is totally separate and portable. When I want to use this "clean" browser I also shut down any other firefox browsers just in case.

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P -no-remote

If you use windows, execute this in the run box and set up a new profile. Now whenever you start firefox, you'll be asked which profile you want to set up ...

Another Tor option is Tor Browser, which has the very latest Tor Browser. After posting my prevous post, I saw that Portable Tor doesn't have the latest security fix.

You can get the Tor Browser bundle, which also contains Vidalia, Polipo, Firefox and Torbutton at hxxp://w3.torproject.org/torbrowser/

Boomboomer is spot on with using the multiple profiles...or just use IE alongside FF.
