Eclipse debug using firefox with profile

| When I set the browser to be firefox with profile,
| eclipse always try to call up a new instance of firefox.
| So, it always cause "Firefox is already running" problem.
|
| However, it I use the default firefox profile, juz call up a new tab so
| it wont prompt up for already running problem

Platform
------------------------------
* Win 7
* Using Eclipse Kelper
* Firefox 25.0.1

Procedure
------------------------------
- I start to debug with xdebug
- It open the firefox to show me the page
- I stop the debugger
- It tries to open firefox again to show me the stopping page
(Using default firefox will call up for new tab
in existing firefox rather than a new firefox)

You added "-no-remote" option in your web browser settings.(Preferences>General>Web Browser)

See Command Line Options - Mozilla | MDN
From "User Profile" section,
>-no-remote
>
>Allows multiple copies of application to be open at a time.
>
>firefox -no-remote -P "Another Profile"
>
>Note: Since Firefox 9, this does really mean what its name implies on all platforms, i.e. instances created with this parameter do not accept or send remote commands, see bug 650078. That means that such instances won't be re-used. Also when using this argument a new instance is created in any case.
Pay attention to the Note.

From "Remote Control" section,
>-remote remote_command
>
>Execute remote_command in an already running application process (see remote control).
>
>firefox -remote "openURL(www.mozilla.org, new-tab)"
Eclipse uses this "remote" option.
@org.eclipse.ui.internal.browser.browsers.MozillaBrowser.BrowserThread.run()
>if (openBrowser(executable, parameters + " -remote openURL(" + url + ")") //$NON-NLS-1$ //$NON-NLS-2$
> == 0)
> return;
