David Can someone suggest something simple I can do to get the nightly to David work better on my home system? Well, I discovered one thing that might have caused Mozilla to bomb. 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.

Copy the plugins folder to a temporary location, then delete your profile folder and all mozilla folders and \windows\mozreg.dat and that should give you a clean start. Re-install and then copy your plugins folder back. -- -- -- Randy Slemko [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The nightlies have been getting usuable again since about the 22nd so this really shouldn't be happening. It's kind of a pain but have you deleted your profile recently and uninstalled mozilla? That generally will get you back on the straight and narrow. Adam adam in the domain devtty.net David M.

Installed Nightly regular (once a week) on my home systeem and from one moment got not gett it running after the splashscreen. Uninstalled, defrag and install again and now everything is up and running very satisfactory. Greetings, Jeroen Roeterd
