Details

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.0rc2) Gecko/20020510
BuildID:    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.0rc2) Gecko/20020510

When I install Mozilla 1.0 rc2 on my NT4 SP6 PC, it uses existing bookmarks
created by Netscape 6.2.2, in particular the imported IE favorites.

When I try to click on one of imported IE favorites, the browser does not open
the URL but shows me actually the contents of the shortcut created by IE, like
following:

[DEFAULT]
BASEURL=http://www.les-nounours.org/scripts/view_stats.php
[InternetShortcut]
URL=http://www.les-nounours.org/scripts/view_stats.php

I tried to uninstall completely Mozilla, then reinstall it and it still does not
work.

I am working with french localized Win NT, so I'm wondering if that could be
somehow the reason of incompatibility between NS 6.2.2 which is in french and
Moz which is in english, but the previous non-licalized versions of Moz that I
tried (including RC1) worked perfectly...


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install mozilla 1.0 RC2
2.Click on one of the imported IE Favorites
3.

Actual Results:  [DEFAULT]

Expected Results:  it should have shown the contents of the
