This is a duplicate from bug 114208 which seems to be fixed. I haven't tried it yet.
Don't know how to mark this as duplicate.
This is not a duplicate of 114208.  That bug refers to the useragent version
reported to web servers.  This bug refers to the version reported in the Windows
add/remove programs tool.

 
Could we change the summary to make this bug more clear?

OLD: 
Inconsistent version information in windows install

NEW: 
Incorrect Version Information in Windows Install (Control Panel - Add/Remove)
Summary: Inconsistent version information in windows install → Incorrect Version Info in Windows Install (Control Panel - Add/Remove)
This bug has been rendered obsolete by the branch for 0.9.7.
The trunk builds now correctly report themselves as 0.9.7+ in Add/Remove programs.

I still see 0.9.5+ on buid "mozilla-win32-installer-sea 2001-12-17.exe"

I just install over older versions, but this wrong version reporting (0.9.5+)
shouldn't be happening anyhow.
Sorry I should have been more specific.  Build 2001121803 reports itself as
0.9.7+ in Add/Remove programs.
I'm pretty sure Curt fixed this

This has been fixed as part of the 0.9.7 branching process.  0.9.7+ is what it
should be (and is).

Ditto the last comment so it will let me mark it fixed.

verified on mozilla build 200121909 and trunk 2001121803
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
using: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.6+) Gecko/20011219

Now I get:

"Help About":  0.9.6+ 

Control Panel: 0.9.7+

Now what's wrong?
Should I file another bug, or reopen this one to fix the help about issue?
Lets open another bug.  I don't think that the help/about has anything to do
with the installer.  CC myself and granrose.
The about: screen version comes from the user agent -- apparently that was not
updated for the trunk, and that would be a different bug.
