User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030521 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030521 It appears sometime after 1.4a (most likely shortly before 1.4a_20030315XX nightly) the GRE installer (or generic installer) leaves old nightly directories in "\Program Files\Common Files\mozilla.org\GRE". On my system this is around 250 MB, so it's something that needs to be addressed. Older nightlies before 1.4a didn't seem to exhibit this problem. There is only one software registry entry for Mozilla in "Add/Remove Programs" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a post 2003031508 nightly. 2. Install a later nightly. 3. Go to drive:\Program Files\Common Files\mozilla.org\GRE in Explorer and look at the junk. Actual Results: I see many nightlies stuff. Expected Results: Removed the older nightlies "common files" directories under \Program Files\Common Files\mozilla.org\GRE\ Marking as major, may want to increase or reduce severity.
