Does the problem occur if you start Firefox in Safe Mode?

When I moved my profile folder (to simulate deletion), and fully reinstall 2.0 (and later the extensions: gspace, reminder, html validator, link checker, web developer, flashgot, downthemall), the problem no occured again.

I thinking about that:
1. Possible the Tab Browser Extension do this.
2. Or other, remained thing in the profile dir.

Sorry for report, but I think it need to warn the users that remove extensions if possible before they upgrade the FF to 2.0.

I think we do, but I think some extensions lie about which Firefox
versions they are compatible with.

Anyway, good to hear it's working again.

The symptoms in the original report match the Firefox 2 install bug.
