WinNT 2002070310.
Lost the existing prefs.js file and was replaced with a newer (and hence)
smaller one. This has already happened to me once on my Win2K system( I thought
it was because of my shifting between debug, branch, ns and mozilla builds and
playing with the preferences a lot). Gregg Landskov has also seen similar problems.
Info that might be useful.
1.Single profile with quick launch.
2.End of day quit the app using Ctrl-Q. Then said ok to the dialog box that
comes up asking if we wanted to see this message again.( dont remember whether I
said yes or no to it).
3.Relaunch app next day morning and saw that I had lost all my prefs.
4.Before exiting - made another copy of prefs.bak.
5.Killed quick launch and then the browser.
6.Replaced prefs.js with copy of old prefs.bak
Relaunched app and everything is fine.

Getting on the radar because multiple people have seen this.
What, dialog came up when you quit, Varada?
QuickLaunch
QuickLaunch is active. Netscape is in memory .......
Do you want to see this dialog again.
[Close]
I dont remember if I said yes or not to that.
