Make a folder named "11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111abcde" 2. Add an "f" at the end. It is now inaccessable. You can't rename it again, or anything withing mozilla. If you don't know how to rename the folder in windows explorer, then the data is inaccessable, but not permanently. Expected Results: Fail the creation/rename if the name is too long.

Mike Fedyk, this bug appears to have been fixed -- at least the 56-character folder name is not a problem -- no later than 1.3.
