From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:0.8.1+) Gecko/20010416 BuildID: 2001041604 Still Image Monitor (Stimon.exe) is a tool that is installed by Windows Millennium Edition (Me) and Windows 98 when a Universal Serial Bus (USB) scanning device is successfully enumerated. Stimon.exe is configured to start automatically during the Windows startup process, and is loaded from the following registry key: HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run It prevent Mozilla from starting. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.have stimon.exe running by having a USB image device installed on the system. 2.start mozilla (fist time willl work) 3.start mozilla again (wont work until you kill stimon.exe and this is not possible with regular windows ME task manager ) Actual Results: Mozilla wont start Expected Results: Mozilla should start Only mozilla seems to have problems with stimon.exe. Before I installed my digital camera I was not having this problem; stimon.exe was probably not runing.
hrm, this would suck. please grab wintop from microsoft.com, it's a w95 kerneltoy, please try it and see if it works on winME [specifically, see if you can use it to kill stimon, i suspect it won't work since stimon should be marked as a kernel process] wrt finding out where mozilla gets stuck, please follow the instructions at http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/dependency-walker.html attach the log as a zip file (application/zip) ideally i'd like to get a DWI file for stimon, but that may not be possible.

I have stimon loaded on my Win98 system, and I've had no problems, so it's probably not as simple as just having stimon loaded. Either that, or it's specifically a Windows ME problem that doesn't happen on Win98.

If I kill stimon.exe with TaskInfo2000(I've grab it from tucows.com) Mozilla resume loading.

I just tried this on my WinME system. Stimon wasn't running, as I didn't have any USB imaging devices installed, but I could start stimon manually. Used system info to verify that stimon was loaded, and then started Mozilla. Loaded fine. Whatever the problem is on the reporter's system, stimon may be triggering it, but I suspect stimon by itself isn't the cause.

almost guarantee you this is a dupe of bug 53952 - Reporter, when you say Moz won't start, does it in fact load into memory but simply display nothing?

based on feedback from the reporter (in Email), this IS indeed a dupe of 53592, as the symptoms are identical. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 53592 ***
