Details

When starting Mozilla I get this NSPR:EventReciver message in a dialog box. "Application popup: NSPR:EventReceiver: mozilla.exe - Entry Point Not Found : The procedure entry point ??_7nsLocalString@@6B@ could not be located in the dynamic link library xpcom.dll." I click the OK button then Mozilla starts up. Mozilla seams to run OK. The problem started when I went from Mozilla 0.9.0 to 0.9.2. I then went back to 0.9.0 but the problem did not go away.
Changing product to Browser. This is a browser bug. (Also, the "NSPR:EventReceiver" code is no longer part of NSPR although we have not got around to rename that Window name.)

"Entry point not found" bugs are almost always a result of installing a newer version of mozilla on top of an older one. I'm marking this a dup of bug 71010; if after reading through that you disagree with this diagnosis, please reopen. Thanks! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 71010 ***

Reporter: Uninstall mozilla, delete all files that the uninstaller had not deleted and reinstall mozilla. This should fix your problem. You get this error because there are a few old .dlls in your system. Please never install a new mozilla over an older build. verified dupe
