I have used Mozilla Thunderbird from version 0.3 till 0.7 problems for some 
time now. Just a moment ago though, my 0.7 would crash (and load talkback) 
immediatly after starting it up. 
I thought an upgrade to version 1.0 might fix the problem, so I downloaded and 
installed it. It seems to have exactly the same problem though :( 
Here is what I get at start-up:

Hmm, the crash doesn't seem to be happening anymore now. I didn't change anything.
I rebooted my computer some time ago though, maybe that fixed the problem
somehow though.
Should this bug be closed? I don't think I'll be able to reproduce it anymore.
