Worked fine for weeks, crashed this morning.  Re-installing didn't help.

My wife attempted to install netscape 7 yesterday.  The installation failed, and 
attempts to invoke netscape 7 fail with the message that the required DLL 
"XPCOM.DLL" is not present.  The version of xpcom.dll in C:\Program Files\Common 
Files\mozilla.org\GRE\1.4a_2003040105 was created in my most recent download 
(8:45 this morning), and was modified "Tuesday, April 01, 2003 7:16:00 AM"

I will try to uninstall and reinstall.

Reproducible: Always

Uninstalling netscape 7(aka netscape 6) and reinstalling mozilla fixed the problem.
