Thunderbird works for me, but every time it closes, XP says there ws an error and wants to send a message to MS. I don't allow it to send. I have a copy of that message which I'll attach if I can.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Close Thunderbird normally.
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Thunderbird closes normally. A Windows error message appears, saying that Thunderbird closed with an error, and wants to send an error message to Microsoft.

Expected Results:  
Same,  except no error message

What format is this file supose to be ? What version of thunderbird are you having the issue with ?
version 2.0.0.21 (20090302)

I have no idea what the format is. It's written by MS Windows for MS to read. I am just passing it on so you would know that these "error messages" are happening. You may have to find a Microsoft person who can translate it.
Robert, could you please test with TB 3 beta 2? http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/3.0b2/

I replaced the motherboard and CPU and the problem went away. The problem board was an ECS with a Pentium 4. I was having a connection problem between the CPU with a LCC (leadless chip carrier). I would have occasional failures of various sorts, which would go away if I opened the CPU socket and reclosed it. Apparently some of the contacts were not making reliable connections. I replaced it with an AMD CPU and board with a PGA (pin grid array) connector. Several problems went away, including this one.
