Reporter: Please read the installation notes and/or release notes, which explain
that you should not install a new build over an old one

I cant reproduce this bug with latest Mozilla installer. This is what I tested:
- installed latest trunk on top of a 0.9.3 installation
- installed latest trunk on top of a 0.9.7 installation
- installed latest trunk on top of a 2002-02-22 installation

all installation were done using the "complete" option.

If this is still a valid bug please specfify how to reproduce...
(install latest on top of what build? etc)
