new directory.

I've got the same bug.  I have a "c:\program files\mozilla thunderbird"
directory from a previous installation.  I can't delete the folder.  Windows
says I can't because "it's not empty."  When I look at it, I see nothing listed.
 When I look at it through the DOS emulator, I get
-------------------------------------------------
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird>dir
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is 7856-DA4B

 Directory of C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird

01/03/2005  11:37 AM    <DIR>          .
File Not Found

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird>
-----------------------------------------------
Installing Thunderbird in a different directory works smoothly.

Matt, is your report for a 202 error or "229 SCRIPT_ERROR
? FF nightly currently has 229 reported in bug 290312

Can anyone who commented replicate this on a current build?
