184547 - About Mozilla displays 1.1b in new window (should be version 1.2.1)

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: Help Documentation, defect)

Description

[Brian Diederich]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1b; MultiZilla v1.1.22) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1b; MultiZilla v1.1.22) Gecko/20021130

In the HELP -> ABOUT MOZILLA section, the new (not tabbed) window that opens
displays the version as 1.1b both in the large, colored text and the "normal"
text (such as: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1b;
MultiZilla v1.1.22) Gecko/20021130)

This was from a FRESH (no registry or leftover pieces) install of 1.2.1.

It may be something that MULTIZILLA left over or takes over inappropriately (as
I have not installed multizilla for thie 1.2.1 version yet).  I searched my
registry for "multizilla" and did not find anything, however.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to HELP
2. Click ABOUT MOZILLA
3. View

Actual Results:  
I get a new window that shows the version to be 1.1b and has this:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1b; MultiZilla v1.1.22)
Gecko/20021130

Expected Results:  
Shown the version to be 1.2.1

Using Orbit Retro theme.  However, it did happen with the default theme for the
3 seconds I used it.

Mozilla use the registry only for OS integration and not for options

-> invalid (no bug and this is no support databse)

delete the line in prefs.js

Registry was only mentioned to show the install was clean.  Does not change the
fact that Mozilla 1.2.1 displays "1.1b" in the Help->About window.

I do not have a prefs.js file in my mozilla.org directory.

Brian Diederich: 
This bug is invalid because it's no bug (please don't reopen this one) !

The prefs.js is in your Mozilla-profile folder.
Please read the release notes before you file a bug

For such question ask 
a) on irc /irc://irc.mozilla.org/#mozillazine) 
b) in the newsgroups (not the developer newsgroups)
