232501 - Mozilla 1.6 crashes just at the end of the installation

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 233011

(SeaMonkey :: Installer, defect)

Description

[Esteban Mora Cyrman]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20030917

All previous versions of Mozilla worked fine on my computer (Windows Me). I
uninstalled version 1.5 to install 1.6 from the Windows installer but, at the
end, I noticed that the installation process never opened the browser. I have no
confirmation of the completed installation. At this point Mozilla icons apears
on my desktop, menu and bar. When I click on the icons (any of them) nothing
happens.

The only way I can use Mozilla is by unstalling all of it and reinstalling 1.4.1
or 1.5 versions. Nothing has changed on my computer. I have not found
documentation of this bug and nothing about it at the mozilla.org pages.

Firebird and Thunderbird are installed on my computer. I tried browser only,
full and personalized installations. Nothing works.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Remove any previous version of Mozilla.
2. Install version 1.6
3. Try to run the browser or mail client.

Actual Results:  
Nothing happen. The browser or the mail clients never appears.

Expected Results:  
A browser to open :-)

Marking duplicate, similar to bug 233011, 234910 is not a duplicate of this bug,
but a mistake,
