279075 - Thunderbird will not open if Firefox is open

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[mightyrat]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

If FF is running and I attempt to load TB it refuses to start up - just a quick
glimpse of the program and then it's gone. If I start TB and *then* start FF,
all is fine. Oh, and FF is my default browser, but TB is not my default mail
handler. Emptying cache in FF makes no difference. No changes/updates to either
program prior to this happening, too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Firefox 1.0
2. Start Thunderbird
3. 

Actual Results:  
Just a quick glimpse of the program and then it's gone.

Expected Results:  
Loaded Thunderbird.

Windows XP, SP2.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
