183272 - hangs on 'creating first window' under 10.2.2 and mozilla 1.2.1

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 144027

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[todd greco]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.22; Mac_PowerPC)
Build Identifier: http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.2.1/

sadly, i can't start mozilla anymore.  i upgraded my copy of 1.2 to 1.2.1 and it won't get 
past the 'creating first window' screen.  top says that it's working and gives it 1-2% of my 
cpu, but it doesn't seem to do anything.

this may be caused by my using the orbit skin, which was made for 1.2, as my default.  is 
there a way to swap it back to the default skin without trashing the rest of my prefs (like 
bookmarks, etc).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start up mozilla, either by clicking on the icon or forcing it to start by clicking on a url in 
the finder (it's set as the default browser)
2. wait.
3. repeat step 2.

Actual Results:  
nothing - it hangs on 'creating first window'

Expected Results:  
given me the browser chrome.

i'm using orbit as my theme, but i'm not sure how to change it back to the default theme.

sorry about the dupe - i just found another one just like it in bugzilla.  looks
like orbit hosed me.

i fixed it by deleting
~/Library/Mozilla/Profiles/[name]/zpikg0av.slt/chrome/chrome.rdf

the images were misaligned, but mozilla worked like a charm.

perhaps it would be a good idea to have mozilla upgrade automagically default
back to the default skin as a safety method?  i can't imagine my mom using
bugzilla, but she's probably like a different skin.
