I want to install Cool VL for it's mesh features to try out mesh. My main viewer is Phoenix. I don't want Cool to override any user settings I've set up for Phoenix. Is there a way to install Cool without effecting what I've done for Phoenix? I do want to have the same chat and IM logs, but probably not much else. Thanks.

By default the Cool VL Viewer uses its own, separate settings file (settings_coolvlviewer_1262.xml for the Mesh version 1.26.2), so it won't be a problem. However, the per-account settings will be shared (all viewers use the same settings_per_account.xml file, though I may well change this for a future release of the Cool VL Viewer), which means that a few per-account settings might be lost when you switch from one viewer to the other while using the same avatar on the same grid.

It is also possible (and actually best) to use a different cache directory (configure it in "Preferences" -> "Network & Web", then restart the viewer), since not all viewers use the same cache version (the Cool VL Viewer uses the same cache version/structure as v2.2 viewers).
