Yes, duping... Never seen this before (download new builds every day), therefore
I didnt search for the bug. This never happenened when using zips (not available
for 0.8 RC)

What caused this was that I dragged and created a shortcut from the mozilla
firebird folder. Using the icon that the installer creates works fine.
