(Keywords: crash)

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1a) Gecko/20020607
BuildID:    20020607

For the last many many builds, Mozilla will not reload after a crash, even if I
log off with Ctrl-Alt-Del. The only way I can get it to reload is if I load a
different version in the interim, and then unload that version. Then, and only
then, I can load the beta I was using in the first place.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do something that will crash Mozilla.
2. Try to load it again.
3.

Actual Results:  Crash

Expected Results:  Obvious
when it happens: try deleting XUL.mfl in your profile dir.
Does that help?
Yes. That stops the subsequent crashes.
Adding to summary. Does Talkback trigger?

This may be related/ dup of bug 143118 (also bug 146891), fixed on the 9th.
I seen to remember a couple other xul.mfl crashers of late as well.
Component: XP Apps → XP Toolkit/Widgets
Summary: Won't reload after a crash → Won't reload after a crash - deleting XUL.mfl helps
Yes. Talkback triggers each time.
Confirming on Mozilla 1.1 alpha 2002060704 Windows 98. It crashes after you
select the profile with the bad xul.mfl file in it.

I have my 4MB xul.mfl file if anyone wants it. Here are my Talkback ID's:
TB7234075Q, TB7234082G, TB7246754G, and TB7246923H.
