Download and install http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla1.8/firefox-1.5.en-US.win32.installer.exe A2. Accept the license agreement and select "Custom" install A3. Notice that the installer has the checkbox for "Quality Assurance Program" unchecked and that for [make shortcut] "On my desktop" checked. B1. Download and install http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/latest-mozilla1.8/thunderbird-1.5.en-US.win32.installer.exe B2. Accept the license agreement and select "Custom" install B3. Notice that Quality Assurance Program is _checked_ and On My Desktop is _unchecked_ Actual Results: See above Expected Results: I would expect defaults to be consistent between corresponding builds of Firefox and Thunderbird (e.g., install Talkback by default; install or don't install desktop shortcuts but do it the same way in both cases). Additional information: I'm currently using the following builds: "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051221 Firefox/1.5" - Build ID:2005122104 "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051221 Thunderbird/1.5" - Build ID: 2005122107

The talkback setting is random: we default to install talkback in 20% of Firefox installs (to prevert server overload) but 100% of Thunderbird installs. The default preference for "on my desktop" is determined by the respective product lead.
