Description

[Reeves]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 Firefox/2.0.0.1
Build Identifier: Thunderbird 1.5.0.9

Cannot uninstall Thunderbird. When attempting to uninstall Thunderbird build 1.5.0.9, the Add / Remove Programs window freezes. Uninstall file from C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\uninstall does not work, nor does the uninstall program inside CCleaner. Do not know what to do. This seems to be similar to Bug #365954.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Used Add / Remove Programs
2.Used uninstall file in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\uninstall
3.Used CCleaner to attempt to uninstall
Actual Results:  
1. Add / Remove Programs window froze, but the rest of my computer did not. I could close the window from the taskbar without a non-responsive message, or resulting to forcing end program. All other programs uninstall without incident.
2. Nothing happens.
3. Nothing happens.

Expected Results:  
1. Uninstall Thunderbird
2. Uninstall Thunderbird
3. Uninstall Thunderbird

Yes, seems to be a duplicate of bug 365954, no need for a new bug. Can you try re-installing, and then uninstalling? (Add info to the duplicate if it works.)

Doesn't seem like many people have problems with it, there must be something special with your setup...
