using build 2002040803- 1. leave default box checked in Installer 2. verify QL turned on by checking reg key and pref (bug 133320 not showing icon on first launch) 3. edit pref and icon appears in systray 4. use browser, mail- go to icon to check context menu and systray icon disappears 5. edit pref but icon will not reappear until you relaunch, edit pref again (happens on Win2k also)
Checked task manager after reproducing this bug -and found 4 netscp6 processes running.

Is it just a flaky icon, or do we really lose QL? BTW, I filed bug 136276 about our opening new app instances in some cases.
seems like a flaky icon- the pref stays enabled and reg key is still set. mouseover the icon and it disappears. Launch from start programs etc and you get a second (or more) process. This stops my testing and prevents others from some testing also so marking blocker

the app definitely shuts down - I can see it in the debugger.
This is a Netscape commercial tree bug. See http://bugscape.mcom.com/show_bug.cgi?id=12226. I've attached a patch to that bug that backs out the changes that cause the problem. I don't know what affect that has on the official build process, however. Setting ETA to tomorrow. Why is this only [ADT2]? It renders quicklaunch completely inoperative.

thought it might just be a flaky icon. adt1 then, see if that sticks.

See also bug 136478 which is likely a dup of this one.

changing summary. That is what I filed as bug 136217.
Summary: QuickLaunch is not staying enabled. → QuickLaunch is not working
Ok, at first I thought my problem might be bug 121100 or 133120, but I guess I found the right place finally. The registry still shows me running with -turbo, the pref is checked and my icon simply disappears on mouseover (although the process continues to run). Really annoying!

Adding to my hitlist.
The root problem (bugscape bug 12226) was fixed on the trunk in today's build. The fix has just gone in on the branch so this will also be fixed in branch builds starting tomorrow.

Grace, this appears to be working for me now with the 4-13 build. I know you test this more in depth so I will not verify it, just want to let you know that it's working for me.
