I had the same problem.
You need to set the folder to the folder that contains the Freelancer.exe, but don't give it the Freelancer.exe file itself. Also be sure to take the one that contains the disco mod, not the orriginal.
I also had some performance issues with Xfire, which were fixed by assigning the Freelancer task to another CPU than CPU 0 with the task manager after I started it.
