261857 - Installer crashes if "Custom" option is selected and keyboard is used to toggle checkboxes.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Installer, defect)

Description

[Wesha]

1. Install Mozilla and use it for a while.
2. Uninstall old Mozilla.
3. Download fresh installer (both stub and full give the same result). I've 
encountered this many times, since August I think, but this particular bug I'm 
filing against 1.8.0.2004092705
4. Run the installer.
5. On Welcome screen, click Next
6. Accept the license.
7. Select "Custom" radio button with the mouse, click Next.
8. Click on the listbox, use up/down arrows and space bar to toggle (uncheck) 
all the checkboxes but "Navigator"
9. Click Next.
10. CRASH!

P.S. Same thing also happens on Win98SE.

The critical part of this bug is using KEYBOARD to check/uncheck checkboxes. If 
you click them with a mouse, it won't crash.

I tried +/- to reproduce this bug but I was not successful.

Could you try to confirm this bug with a recent build ?

(See also bug 264980, which could be related.)

!!!! ATTENTION !!!!

Correction! Replace Step 9 of original Steps To Reroduce with the following:

9. Press Enter.

In that case, it is still reproducible on the freshest build 2005021205/Win98SE.

SeaMonkey v1.0.x is not supported anymore.

Can you reproduce with SeaMonkey v1.1.9 ?

Seamonkey and Firefox are using a new NSIS based installer. resolving this old
bug, please reopen if you still get this with the new installer
