After a crash, while using RC1, all sidebar tabs disappeared.
I have uninstalled RC1, removed all remnants I could find, cleaned
out the registry, installed RC2, and the sidebar tabs are still
missing.
When I select Tabs/Customize Sidebar, I get a list of available tabs.
When selecting one, I am able to preview it, but when selecting 'Add',
the item gets greyed out immediately and is not added to the sidebar.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RC1
2. Have it crash
Actual Results: Sidebar tabs are gone forever
Expected Results: The tabs should be restorable from the menu. A complete
reinstall should certainly restore tabs, but it does not.

i have the same problems,
can't add anything to the sidebar with mozilla rc2 (add button doesn't work).
with an older version of netscape (6.1) i can add tabs to the sidebar, but the
ok button is invalid so i have to cancel.
in both versions preview works fine (and the search tab for example works fine
too in preview mode)

Resolved problem by deleting profile before installing RC3. Note that profile
directory is not even visible under Windows XP unless the path is manually
typed in, so this is an extreme measure to solve the problem; one that the
casual user would probably never discover. The suggested solution is still
to protect the sidebar information from accidental deletion, especially
deletion as the result of a crash.
