Confirmed - another problem is that sunbird can not display grid in main view

A warning could be like this:

Could not initialize the browser's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your browser's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the browser and fix the problem. If you continue to use this browser session, you might see incorrect browser behaviour when accessing security features.

I can see it for Thunderbird

But after closing the alert Thunderbird launches. IMO Sunbird should be closed after displaying the warning.

Mozilla 1.8 Branch: Sunbird 0.8pre (2008011105) on Windows XP:
Works for me. Sunbird starts up normally but will fail later e.g. upon creating an event ("flushItem DB error: attempt to write a readonly database").

Trunk: Sunbird 0.6a1 (2008011104) on Windows XP:
An alert "Could not initialize the application's security component. ..." is displayed. After confirming the message Sunbird crashes.

I can see different error:
Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520013 (NS_ERROR_FILE_READ_ONLY) [mozIStorageConnection.beginTransactionAs]"  nsresult: "0x80520013 (NS_ERROR_FILE_READ_ONLY)"  location: "JS frame :: file:///C:/Users/Omar/Desktop/sunbird/modules/calUtils.jsm -> file:///C:/Users/Omar/Desktop/sunbird/calendar-js/calCalendarManager.js :: calmgr_checkAndMigrateDB :: line 449"  data: no]

This is a sunbird issue.
