Issue with double-click on bookmark opening in new window?
One thing that I liked in Mozilla, at least up to a week or so ago, was that double-clicking on a bookmark opens the page in a new window. Netscape 6.x still works this way. However, in the last week or so, Mozilla suddenly changed so that double-clicking on a bookmark opens the link in the last used window (apparently), and not in a new window. Apparently using single-click and then selecting "Open" still opens it in a new window, in both Mozilla and Netscape 6.x, but that means I have to use both the mouse and the keyboard to get what I would like to be the default. Perhaps a configuration item to specify what double-click will do would be useful. Has this issue been discussed anywhere? I didn't notice any mention of it, but perhaps I didn't use the correct search string. -- ======= David M. Karr ; Best Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; Java/Unix/XML/C++/X ; BrainBench CJ12P (#12004)
Past 2 weeks: Home win2k: latest bombs at start; Office win2k: latest runs
I regularly download and install the latest "nightly" mozilla on both my home and office win2k systems. For about the last two weeks or so, I haven't been able to get past the splash screen on my home system without it bombing. On my office system, however, it usually works fine. I always do the talkback builds, so I would guess this data is being returned, but I would have to think there's something wrong with my system setup that is causing it to bomb every time. Can someone suggest something simple I can do to get the nightly to work better on my home system? -- ======= David M.

The "uninstall" from the start menu fails with a missing registry item. The "MozillaUninstaller.exe" from the installation succeeds, but it says it's uninstalling mozilla 0.9.1, but it still fails again when I reinstall it. So, how exactly do I delete my profile, holding on to my plugins? -- === David M. Karr ; Best Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; Java/Unix/XML/C++/X ; BrainBench CJ12P (#12004)

While installing and running it, I was running "mysql". I tried killing mysql, then running mozilla (not reinstalling), and it ran fine. I haven't tried restarting mysql yet. -- === David M.
