1. Go to http://jimbob/jars and click on an8bitscript_currentuser.jar
f = Install.GetFolder("Current User", "charset");
RESULT:
Crash. Log file shows no jar activity.

A folder named "charset" is created and populated with files as described from

I have fixed the Current Usertarget of GetFolder(). However, the jar still
crashes due to bug 6661. I have modified the jar to work around this problem
which verifies that this bug is fixed. You can find this modified jar here:
http://grok/u/dougt/xpinstall/an8bitscript_currentuser_mod.jar
Build 6/1/99 Windows
I am reopening this report to inquire why the modified jar fails while the
unmodified one is now successful.
I'm crashing immediately when triggering the modified jar. However, unlike bug
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5577, triggering the unmodified jar
now behaves as expected. The Install.log shows that the jar was triggered
succesfully.

Jimmy please verify if this is still an valid bug
Build 6/16/99 SeaMonkey
1. Go to http://puma/xpinstall/test/trigger.html (Samir's trigger--mine doesn't
work) and trigger
http://grok/u/dougt/xpinstall/an8bitscript_currentuser_mod.jar
I still get a crash on Windows NT. However, a "charset" folder is created as
expected and files are added up to "ch170-?".

Build 7/30/99
This still crashes for me with an8bitscript_currentuser_mod.jar. The folder is
created and some files are added. This time it got as far as ch204-Þ. Linux
and Macintosh behave fine. The problem is only with WindowsNT and Win98. Win95
has not been tested yet.

okay. I can not reproduce this again. Lets do the basic problem thing and
break this bug into pieces.
First, lets remove all the 8 bit characters from this jar file. Let make a
simple case that does an add of 1000 files into current user.
Second, lets make a test case that only adds 8bit files.
Third, lets get together so that you can show me the crash. I maybe able to
figure out more than the talkback report.
Until then, I will leave as assigned.

After talking to cathleen, she comfirms that the problem really is the 8bit
characters. This 8 bit problem, only occurs on optimized builds. I am closing
*this* bug as WORKS_FOR_ME and advise opening a new bug regarding the 8bit
characters.

Marking this verified. Will investigate 8-bit characters further and enter new
