From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Darwin Power Macintosh; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020606 BuildID: 20020705 Launching mozilla gets me to the splash screen and menu bar up top shows up, but rainbow ball of wait spins and doesn't stop. I've let it run for more than 30 minutes once, hoping it was compiling or gathering it's thoughts but no joy. Oddly enough, it only started doing this to me last week. I had not installed any patches or updates to the os (10.1.5) the day it started so I don't know what caused this. I also deleted all the preferences in my usr folder before installing again but got same results. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install mozilla (stable or nightly builds, doesn't matter) 2. Launch mozilla 3. After watching rainbow ball spin for 15 minutes (or as long as you can stand it), force quit. Actual Results: rainbow ball spins. Wait. Wait. Wait. Nothing. not a browser page. Menu above appears but I can't select a single item since the rainbow ball is spinning. Expected Results: Given me a webpage. Please let me know how to fix this. I use mozilla on my linux and windows 98 box and it is, by far, my favorite browser.
Al, can you reproduce this problem using a new Mozilla user profile?

Created another profile in 'profile manager.' Didn't do anything different, just named the profile something other than Default. Launched mozilla. Worked great. Thanks to Greg Kolanek for the help.
