Calendar causes Mozilla to crash at launch when preselected to launch (Edit >
Preferences, Appearance, select Calendar). 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Calendar to launch at start-up: Edit > Preferences, Appearance, select
Calendar 
2. Close Mozilla.
3. Start Mozilla, will crash.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla crashed, feedback agent came on screen.
Problem appeared when Calendar was selected to launch at startup. Problem was
solved when I de-selected Calendar to launch at start-up.

Expected Results:  
Open Calendar and any other preselected application.


Theme: Modern (came with install), downloaded and installed Calendar at
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/, Calendar works fine when launched
after Mozilla has been started.
I think this bug depends on bug 204445

WFM with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-AT; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030507
(ZIP-File-version from www.kairo.at) and Mozilla Calendar 2003050815-cal 

I can confirm the problem with
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; En-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030507 ,
Installer-EXE-File , with unknown calendar-version (can not start installed
calendar in that version)

Problem happens if calendar is preselected in preferences and also if mozilla is
started witn ....\mozilla.exe -calendar

Reporter, could you try with the very latest calendar-version?

Attached image screenshot with errormessage —
Problem occurs with latest (8 May) build. Did not test whether it is associated
with earlier builds as well.

Problem seems to have been fixed with latest Calendar release (Mozilla Calendar
2003061213-cal) with Moz 1.4 RC1 (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1;
en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529).

I do not think that that problem is really fixed.
Today I saw the ugly red text on yellow ground again instead of a calendar.
I tried to install for actual 1.4 WIN98 german version from ZIP the recommended
calendar, but it seems installation failed with a.m.result.

So I Installed a new 1.4 (german) installer version from
<http://germaninstaller.sourceforge.net/>:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-AT; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624
and the recommended actual calendar from august, but again without success. I
get something similar to a calendar view to the screen, but nothing works.
