From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.9+) Gecko/20020407 BuildID: 2002040708 I used MSIE 6 to download the full installer from the linked URL in the downloads page. That link, as of 07 April 2002, was: http://download.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/releases/mozilla0.9.9/mozilla-win32-0.9.9-installer.exe This install turned out to be a March build of 0.9.9, but I don't recall the exact build number. I custom installed the complete build to drive D and elected to not promote Mozilla to my primary browser. Mozilla launched fine and home page indicated a newer build was available. I dl'd the mozilla-win32-installer.exe provided in the link, selected all options via custom install, downloading yet another 10MB via my 56k connection. The install dl'd and ran and re-launched Mozilla, build 2002040708, but all I got was the window with the control bar, which showed the page title "Getting involved..." or something close to it. No other window elements drew. I could not launch a new window, but I could close the one window. I did not see what URL it was calling as the window never got that far being drawn. I dl'd the full installer from the ftp site, which was tagged as 2002040711 but installed as 2002040708 per the control bar. The problem persisted. I uninstalled the whole Mozilla package and removed the directory. I did not clean any entries from the registry (if any were left). I re-installed the latest build (the 2002040708 tagged as 2002040711) and it is now working. I'm using it now to enter this message. I'd be willing to attempt a re-creation, but I'm not truly sure I could roll the system back to its true pre-Mozilla state, though I could be sure to clear the registry if anything is left after an un-install. I do not have Netscape installed on this system, so I should not suspect conflicts. Regards, Scot Harkins Greenbank, WA http://www.bigfoot.com/~scoth Reproducible: Didn't try
