My mozilla is crashing when I close the last mozilla window. I use the latest
nightly build, the problem is also there in the latest official release (1.4 or
so). The talkback function didn't fetch any data, it only asks me to send a (I
think empty) report, and windows gives me some error about a membory read error.
I got no problems with Netscape 7.02, but I want to use mozilla because of the
junk mail filter and the newer gecko version, but it's very irritating like
this. I got NO netscape installed.

OS: Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition SP-1
CPU: AMD Athlon 2000+
RAM: 512 DDR
HD: 80GB


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start mozilla
2. Close mozilla
Actual Results:  
Windows XP error message, talkback (I think empty).

Expected Results:  
Just close normal.
Here is the windows XP error (translated from dutch):

The instruction on 0x02dc7cd2 points to the memory on 0x0000000c. The read- or
write command ("written") on the memory has failed.

Click OK to end ...... etc.
It won't save my bookmarks when it crashes.

only Mozilla drivers can set (+) blocking flags.  you can only request (?) them.

OK, but is there any solution?
I think linux is the best solution ;-).
can you reproduce this with a recent nightly?

if you can post a talkback ID, that might help.  without further information,
there's not going to be any solution...
I got this working after removing mozilla and my mozilla application data
profile and then reinstalling everything. I lost some data, but it was worth it.
