I tried uninstalling 1.3.1 then running the 1.4rc2 installer.  Same effect.

but was the directory actually empty after the uninstall?
Keywords: crash
OS: other → Windows ME
That was the problem.  The uninstaller didn't remove the spell check & one
plugin (NPSWF32.dll).  After removing those the install of 1.4rc2 went smoothly.

Sorry about that (no doubt this is a FAQ).
