From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010726 Netscape6/6.1 BuildID: Netscape 6.1 Commercial After increasing the Screen Area under the Settings Tab on Display Properties for Win2000 to 1280x1024 and saving, all the chrome on the browser is severely damaged. Additionally, it does not display gifs or jpgs on webpages properly either. Worse yet, after uninstalling 6.1, remigrating, rebooting, and redownloading and installing 6.1, it doesn't correct the problem. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Right click on Desktop 2. Select Properties 3. Select Setting tab 4. Increase Screen Area to Maximum 5. Save Settings 6. Launch 6.1 browser Actual Results: The first time this was done, the results explained above occurred. Can't reproduce because of the inability to correct the original problem.
Can you reproduce this with a current trunk build? Screenshot? Are you using -turbo mode (Fast Launch)? Over to imagelib as the most likely culprit

I will remove all 6.1 from my machine including any profile information, download the lastest trunk build and see if it helps.
Were you using QuickLaunch, aka -turbo command line option?

I was not using turbomode when it happened. I ended up installing a new build and downgrading to 256 colors at (1024 X 768) (with turbo enabled). This corrected the problem. Originally I was at a 1024 X 768 setting with high color (16 bit) and everything worked fine. When I tried to go up to 1280 everything was damaged...and when reverting back to 1024 & high color it was still damaged. The bad thing is that I can use any other application besides 6.1+ at 1024 and high color, and everything works fine.
WFM w2k build 2001-10-17-18-0.9.4 marking so, reporter if you are still seeing this, please reopen
