I tried to upgrade version 1.0.7 repeatedly, also downloaded newest version again (2nd time, just in case), rebooted more than once, but neither allowing the installer program to start T-bird nor using my desktop shortcut starts the new version.  Fortunately, I saved the older version and have reloaded it.  I will try Opera now and wait for a less buggy Thunderbird version.  Incidentally, I have used Netscape products since the very first ones.

I use the Thunderbird latest nightly builds and yesterday (15/05/2006) I recieved an update - 1.9:2006.50506 I now cannot open thunderbird even after rebooting. To reproduce start Thunderbird. Result is an error message stating "Thund~1.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." An error file is attached.
