From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.1) Gecko/20010607 BuildID: 2001060703 The 0.9.1 zip can't handle data from an older version. This may be acceptable for pre-release, but this would be a showstopper in an actual release. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install 0.9 from zip. 2. Give up on 0.9 and let it sit for a few months. 3. Install 0.9.1 from zip. Actual Results: Mozilla crashes after the splash screen with an application error. Expected Results: Mozilla should start up normally with all of the settings from the previous version. To fix this problem, I deleted the Application Data/Mozilla directory from my user profile in the Windows directory.
the .zip file is not an installer. You should try the .exe

Were you using a third-party theme (i.e. not classic/modern) before installing 0.9.1? If yes, then it's a known issue, and the bug is indeed invalid. If not.. then I don't know
sure is invalid
