*   Remove your old `Mozilla' folder.
*   If you are connected to the Internet, disconnect.
*   Run Mozilla.

This is rather ... alarming.

[Simon Paquet [:sipaq]]

This bug is targeted at a Mac classic platform/OS, which is no longer supported
by mozilla.org. Please re-target it to another platform/OS if this bug applies
there as well or resolve this bug.

I will resolve this bug as WONTFIX in four weeks if no action has been taken.
To filter this and similar messages out, please filter for "mac_cla_reorg".

(in retrospect, MPT filed more strange Mac OS classic networking bugs than
anyone else...)

CFM RIF.
