remember well.

can you try again using latest 1.2 build ?
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest-1.2
Do you crash when removing JRE 1.3.x ?

Reporter can you reproduce this bug with a newer build (1.4 final) and newer
Java Versions (1.4.2)? (Also have you symlinked the java library?)
If not, then please close this bug as worksforme. Thanks.
