to reproduce:
- Start Mozilla
- Start the Installer (you get an error) Just keep the error dialog
- Exit Mozilla
- Start the Installer again (now you have two installers running)
- Exit the last installer
- Press "Retry" in the first installer
You now get a empty dialog with the title "Error"
this should already be fixed

still there on commercial build - branch 02001091705
Summary: Staring installer while installer and mozilla is already running produces weird results → Starting installer while installer and mozilla is already running produces weird results
Grace, can you try this:
1) have n6 running with a browser window open and Turbo running
2) using the command line, run the following: netscp6.exe -kill
from the same directory as where netscp6.exe is at.
see if you get the same results. The installer tries to detect if the browser
is running in turbo mode and, if so, calls it with the -kill command. I'm
guessing that this is causing problems now. I've been noticing weird things
with the -kill command, but nothing a 100% reproduceable for me.
(The uninstaller tries to do the same thing).

nothing happens. Browser stays open, icon remains in tray
using build 2001091812 branch

Now that the first "is running" check is gone this is probably gone. Maybe you
could do the same thing if you waited through the download for the second check,
but then you'd probably have to wait through a second download before the second
installer gets to the same check and that's not very likely.

ahhh kind of. you can still get funky results if you start another instance of
the installer when you get the "attention" icon. The installer simple uses to
many different windows...:(

Are we ready to mark this future or otherwise get it off the radar?

It is off the radar, it's not NEW, it's not keyworded, and it's not assigned to
a milestone we care about. But "Future" if that's better.
