Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Mozilla 1.4b 2. Load Mozilla 3. Uninstall, repeat Actual Results: Get the entry point not found error Expected Results: Loaded with no errors
This is a known problem. We plan to fix it in Mozilla 1.4 final. The problem is caused by older NSS DLLs (nss3.dll, smime3.dll, and ssl3.dll) in your system directory. Can you look in C:\WINNT\system32 or C:\WINDOWS\system32 for these three DLLs? Do you have Netscape Directory Server installed on your system?

Have experienced same problem on machine that only has the Netscape/iPlanet Console (i.e. 5.1) installed. Does a work-around to this problem exist?
The versions of nss3.dll, smime3.dll and ssl3.dll are all 3.3.1.0. Netscape directory server isn't installed, but iPlanet and another LDAP server are installed.
The work around is to copy the following four DLLs: nss3.dll softokn3.dll smime3.dll ssl3.dll from the GRE directory (which looks like C:\Program Files\Common Files\mozilla.org\GRE\<version-build-date-id>) to the Mozilla directory (the directory where mozilla.exe resides).
