Oh God... this comes back from the Netscape 6.x days... The way I
remember it, "prefs.js" is a set of STANDARD preferences, that applies
to ALL profiles. User.js on the other hand includes custom settings
for any given profile.

Say you want for instance to add a proxy, for default on all firefox
(and mozilla and seamonkey) profiles... you add it to prefs.js...
