WTF.. just clicking on Help -> About Mozilla Thunderbird got me this error XML Parsing Error: not well-formed Location: chrome://messenger/content/aboutDialog.xul Line Number 1, Column 6: </hbox> -----^ I restarted thunderbird and all is well.. It stated that it was adding the "Hebrew" addon. I think perhaps it was becuase there was an upgrade and the app just needed a reload. I think you should incorporate at least a reminder for restarting thunderbird, or sig term it and restart it yourselves after an upgrade. Another thing you can do is send a HUP signal and have it behave like apache where it seemlessly reloads the config and continues to operate.. Then agian the apache model is far different than this. Thanks, Carl.
