		+	==What does Troubleshoot Camino “change”?==
		+
		+	Troubleshoot Camino does three basic things as part of “using a fresh profile”:
		+
		+	* creates a temporary clean profile folder, with default Camino preference settings
		+	* creates a temporary clean cache folder (including site icon cache)
		+	* informs any hacks (InputManagers, Unsanity haxies, APE modules) that respect the <code>CAMINO_DISABLE_HACKS</code> environment variable[http://www.escapedthoughts.com/weblog/camino/P070227caminohacks.writeback] not to load, thereby disabling them in Camino for the session
		+
		+	===What does Troubleshoot Camino not change?===
		+
		+	Troubleshoot Camino does not:
		+	* use or create a clean <code>org.mozilla.camino.plist</code> Cocoa property list file
		+	* move, touch, or otherwise modify the default Camino profile folder or cache folder
