sorry my browser  filled in netscape, i thought i was filling out form in
mozilla, this is a bug experienced in build  1.2.1 (mozilla-win32-1.2.1-installer).
i think possibly profile is has been corrupted?

Sharing a profile is explicitly warned against in the Netscape installation notes.

Can you try quit mozilla (and quickstart, if running). Then delete the file
XUL.mfl in your profile directory. (It's a cache file and will be rebuilt after
new startup if missing)

deleteing the file
XUL.mfl in your profile directory. resolves issue
profile was not shared

Comment 5

[R.K.Aa.]

Reopening. This bug is not fixed. It should not be necessary to delete XUL.mfl
manually.

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

saving the corrupted file instead of deleting it would have been nice... :(
