0. Launch browser with turbo mode
1. From http://jimbob/trigger3.html, click on Functional Test Case drop-down and
   choose f_addfile_notepad
2. Click Trigger case button
3. Click OK from Items to Install dialog
5. Click on close box of browser window to exit maintaining turbo mode
6. Go to Netscape directory and open subdirectory, addFile_notepad
7. Launch Notepad
8. Launch browser
9. From http://jimbob/trigger3.html, click on Functional Test Case drop-down and
   choose f_addfile_notepad_inuse
10. Click Trigger case button
11. Click OK from Items to Install dialog
12. Click on close box of browser window to exit maintaining turbo mode
13. Exit Notepad
14. Launch browser

RESULT:
Subdirectory, addFile_notepad, has notepad.old(34kb) and notepad.exe (45kb).
File, notepad.old, is not cleaned up.  If this were a DLL, then we would not
have successfully replaced the file.  Relaunching the browser would launch the
old DLL.  Restarting the machine appears to resolve the problem.

EXPECTED RESULT:
File is replaced and old files are removed.  Launching browser under turbo mode
uses new DLL(s).

Nominating.  With turbo enabled, this prevents the browser to successfully
replace files.  My test case uses an exe, but the more realistic case has to be
dlls.  We won't launch the new dll's until the old one has been cleaned up.

This sounds like a dup of the smartupdate bug.  If it's a unique bug, can you
fill in the whiteboard with eta info?

If not a duplicate it's similar enough that I should work on it.
