It should instead recognize that running mozilla-runtime.exe failed and prompt the user with a dialog (or reuse the plug-in crashed UI?) that it was not possible to run mozilla-runtime.exe and what the user can do to fix the problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. close Minefield 2. rename mozilla-runtime.exe 3. start Minefield 4. visit a page that requires a plug-in Actual Results: Minefield hangs. Expected Results: Minefield should not hang and tell the user that mozilla-runtime couldn't be run.

Andreas, I'm interested in knowing how you ended up with a missing/damaged mozilla-runtime.
Therefore I wrote "see bug 522190 comment 5", because I have written there how I ended up with a 0-byte mozilla-runtime.exe Short: The partial update failed and damaged the file. I don't have a clue why...
