How to move Mozilla profile folder

Mozilla profile folder (which stores netscape profile) occupies huge space in C drive. Here is how to move it:

1. Exit Netscape
2. Start -> Run -> type '%APPDATA%'
3. Select Mozilla -> Profiles
4. Copy profile folder (XXXXXXX.default) and paste it to desired location (eg. D:\Mozilla\Profiles)
5. Start -> Run -> type 'netscp.exe -ProfileManager'
6. Click 'Create Profile'
7. Click 'Choose Folder'
8. Select the newly copied folder (eg. D:\Mozilla\Profiles\XXXXXXX.default)
9. Now select the newly created profile and click 'Start Netscape x.x' -- verify that it retrieves old cookies and proxy settings, etc. -- VOILA!!
