an update (Was win32 build problem in latest nightlies)

[Patrick Taylor Ramsey]

I have determined that it is not a problem with theme incompatibility.
Wierdly enough, mozilla 2002050608 works just fine as long as I use the
switch "-profilemanager"--that is to say, as long as profile manager
runs, I can start mozilla--even if I use the same profile (and the same
themes) that I was using in RC1!

So, any ideas?

The original message is quoted below:



===========
The following is happening:

I can only run the latest nightlies once. After I quit them and restart
them, they freeze on the splash screen. If I start up an older build
(say, RC1) and select a different theme, quit it, and then start the
latest nightly again, it will run again. But yet again, only once.
Rebooting the computer has no effect on it.

My system is as follows:
Celeron 433
Windows 98
256MB SDRAM
20GB HD

Is this a mozilla bug, or a problem with my machine? It seems awful
suspicious, and a little frightening so close to the release of 1.0. I'm
afraid I have no programming ability whatsoever, so the best I can do is
to act as the messenger. Hope this gets fixed soon!
