The installer fails attempting to write the file nmozmap32.dll
Not only is it a failure to install it is also a badly formatted message.

Error opening file for writing: \r\n\r\nmozMapi32.dll\r\n\r\nClick Retry to try again, or \r\ncancel to stop to stop the installation.

This occurs when trying to install on Windows XP Professional X64

had Thunderbird 1.5 working just fine previously(and just reinstalled it fine)

Version: unspecified → 2.0
confirmed with xp pro x64 build 3790, same problem.
Paul, Allen, please see Bug 378211. Do you use a Logitec Webcam Software ?
Righto, that solved it, strange that the searches for nmozmapi32.dll didn't show that bug report.
