again.

Reproducible: Always

The following error message appeared
/content/SidebarPanel.xul cannot be found. Please check the location and try 
again.

Expected Results:  
Sidebar should came up. Just like in Netscape. I wonder how come it works in 
Netscape and doesnt in Mozilla?
Your bug *can* be invalid. It /stinks/ like a profile sharing between NS and
Mozilla...

Do you use the same profile between both software ?

If you do so, you *have to* create a profile for mozilla and one for NS. Never
share a profile between them. Never.
I have kind of guessed the problem about Netscape but I uninstalled it
prior to installation of Mozilla and it didnt help. What I missed was 
that Netscape doesnt remove the profiles!
Creating a new profile for Mozilla fixed the problem.!

Reopen this bug to close it as invalid, because it was not a mozilla bug.

FYI: It's the AIM panel...

I can confirm this bug occurs in on Windows 2000 as well.  Comments on the net
seem to suggest that this may be due to some possible interaction between
Mozilla and AIM and/or Netscape 6 (both of which I have installed).  One
proposed solution seems to be to find sidebar.rdf and delete it but that file
doesn't exist on the partition on which Netscape 4.72, Mozilla 1.5 and Netscape
6 are installed.

SidebarPanel.uxl doesn't exist on that partition either.
