I read yesterday that Netscape do not recommend the sharing of a profile with 
Mozilla.  I believe that this has caused many of my problems, but since I did 
not come across that warning before I installed, it's too late now.  I wonder 
if uninstalling NS will remove Mozilla as well, or just break it even 
further.  And if it does the second, will I be able to uninstall Moz, or will 
it be messed up like trying to uninstall a broken windows app?
