I think you mean profile. You can delete your current profile and Firefox will create a new one....back up bookmarks etc before you do this.

Navigate to:

C:\Documents and Settings\your user name\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles and delete the folder you find. On restart Firefox should create a new blank profile.

Alternatively just uninstall and reinstall Firefox.

::::Edit:::: Simpler method. Go to Start..Run.. type 'firefox.exe -p' (without quotes) this will run the Firefox profile manager. Has options to delete current profile.
