You should not upgrade the firefox package while it's open. That's a lesson I've learned when I've also lost a profile. Everytime you see firefox in the upgrade packages list, I suggest you close it and then upgrade.
IMHO, you really shouldn't upgrade any package while it's running. I always use "pacman -Syuw" to download all needed updates, then drop into single user mode to actually install everything with "pacman -Su". Seems like that would be a best practice to me. DR
