From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9+) Gecko/20010524 BuildID: 2001052404 This bug might point to a different issue, but I'm noticing this with the latest build, with moz run at bootup in "turbo" preloader mode. If there are no moz windows open, and I click a link on the desktop, Moz opens with an about:blank page. If I click the link again (with the moz window open), the page appears Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have mozilla start up at bootup with the -turbo flag. 2. Click an HTML link on your desktop (haven't tried with explorer, assume the same result). 3. A browser window pops up immediately, but it doesn't contain the correct page, but instead contains an about:blank page. 4. With that window, browse to another site. 5. Now, try clicking on the HTML link from step 2 again. 6. A new browser window will come up, and it will properly contain the page. Expected Results: The clicked HTML link should open up in the first browser window.

similar behaviour can be noted on win2k SP2 running 0.9.1 release. when activating a shortcut for mozilla (from the desktop, or start menu, etc - something that just loads mozilla, not a HTML link) it will open both an about:blank window and a window with the users home page a couple of moments (<1 sec) later. expected behaviour: only one window to open, loading the users home page.
