Sounds like you had some sort of extension installed and installed on top of a previous Mozilla install.. and this extension does not like the string changes.
(In reply to comment #1) > Sounds like you had some sort of extension installed and installed on top of a > previous Mozilla install.. and this extension does not like the string changes. no, that was the first advice in a forum to check this, but I can completly uninstall mozilla, delete the mozilla install directory, freshly install mozilla 1.7b create e NEW profile and I get the same erro. More freshly an installation cant' be.
Did you also removed c:\program files\common files\mozilla.org ?
(In reply to comment #3) > Did you also removed c:\program files\common files\mozilla.org ? Sorry! I found the problem, npmozax.dll in my plugin-dir, which was not deleted because it was somehow in use. don't ask me where it came from. no everything works fine. sorry for bug-opening.

Er... shouldn't the installer handle this? I'm reopening this bug until we sort out exactly why files that should have been deleted were not.

This bug report is about the activeX plugin which must be use unfrozen interfaces (see comment#4) And "invalid" seems to be the correct solution for *this* bug report
Ah, I see. Ok, yeah. That's invalid. It wasn't clear that npmozax is the ActiveX control.

This bug is fixed if the correct version of npmozax.dll, the ActiveX plugin, is used. The npmozax.dll in the Mozilla ActiveX Control v1.7t1, dated 13 April 2004, works. Download the control, install it and then copy the dll from the controls' Plugins dir to Mozilla's Plugins dir. http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/MozillaControl17t1.exe

I re-installed several times, deleting more and more files&directories prior to each install. Not until I deleted every file/folder with the word mozilla did the install produce a version free of this bug. That shouldn't be necessary.
If you got the same entry point error as the reporter, you had the Mozilla ActiveX Plugin installed. It's the fault of the plugin and not something in Mozilla.
