system, same build.

How in the world can a bookmark editing and sidebar problem be considered as a
duplicate of the printing bug? It has nothing to do with that.

reopen...are we sure this is a DUP of bug 83750 ?

No, I guess RKaa wanted to dupe another bug report.
Have you installed your build on a fresh profile? or a profile visited by netscape?

Weird. The bug i thought i was dup'ing was bug 146334.
Sometimes i wonder if Bugzilla is pulling the rug from underneath my.. keyboard
- changing bug numbers after i dup them.

Hummm, well, I guess it's the same profile that I've been using for some time 
and, yes, it was originally from Netscape. Ok, if that's the problem, how do I 
install to a fresh profile? Don't recall it asking anything profiles during the 
re-install.
Thanks

Ok, I removed the profile from the documents.../app.../mozilla/profiles and 
installed again and created a new profile. Same problem. Also it appears that 
there's some major problems with many editing places. I can also not click of 
the tree list tabs in the Preferences... window. And the Back button doesn't 
work, as well as the menu Go/Back.
Very odd. Everything worked until these RC releases.

Ok, I finally just uninstalled the thing and re-installed. And guess what, all
appears ok now. Still doing some testing but all the un-clickable areas appear
to be working ok now. Hummm, did I miss a release note entry about un-installing
first? Oh well, we'll cross our figures. Sorry for the apparent false alarm.
Thanks
