Description

[Chris P. Ross]

When I install chatzilla 0.66d on a firefox 1.0 (built by the fine folks at
Sun), I see:

cz: Initializing ChatZilla {
cz:   Exception calling xulSortService.sort()
cz:   caught exception while initializing:
+ QueryInterface (function) [native code]
+ message (string) 'Component returned failure code: 0x80004005

+ result (number) 2147500037
+ name (string) 'NS_ERROR_FAILURE'
+ filename (string) 'chrome://chatzilla/content/lib/js/file-utils.js'

  If I install 0.66, it seems to come up just fine...

Yes, this is a known problem - it's because you don't have write access to the
install location of Firefox/Mozilla.

FIXED.
