Details

The browser launches fine at the end of the install. If I close it, it *never* appears again, no matter how hard I try, and trust me, I've tried about 30 different methods. Perhaps the window has a saved size of zero by zero, or perhaps it is placed outside the viewable area of my window. However, I don't get a tab in the start bar either, and that *is* worrying. I'm using W2K SP3 by the way. I'm a website developer within IBM, and I need to be able to test my pages with all popular browsers. It's getting tedious having to re-install absolutely every time I want to run a test! Even if I uninstall Mozilla and Netscape 7 the re-installed Mozilla has remembered my proxy settings and skin. So perhaps this is caused by a setting that is not deleted by the uninstall?
Repotert, what is your build-id ? (see Help -> About Mozilla). Also, make sure that you don't share profiles between Mozilla and Netscape. Both will store your setting in your profile (in C:\Documents and Settings\[Windows Login Name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\[Profile Name]\[random string].slt\ ), that's why it was remembered after an install.
1,$s/Repotert/Reporter/g sorry ...
Installed the latest nightly unders Windows NT SP6a. Mozilla never launches sucesffuly after the install. Instead of getting the window to select a profile I get a popup windows that contains text only describing what a profile is. If I close the windows (click on X in upper right corner) nothing happens after that. If I attempt to restart mozialla I get a single window that has "ALERT" in the title bar. The Window can not be resized to see what in it. All I can do is close it.
Opps, did not page down through all reported bugs today. My problem is bug 165199, which I found by seeing BUG 165720.
