Hi Bat,

 BL> TTBOMK, yes (dll's), eCS 1.2, Yes (Inno).

I have never tried the 1.7 release but I am using Mozilla 1.8 under W4 FP15 
here and Firefox 1.x also ran fine for me (but I prefer Moz 1.8), so this may 
not apply to you. A couple of things I did discover is that different versions 
of Mozilla need different version of LIBCnn.DLL. If the right one is NOT 
present then you end up with the exact result that you see, in that Mozzilla 
starts and ends within seocnds with no other indication of what might be wrong. 


I also found that IPLUGINW.DLL caused this exact start/stop issue as well, I 
had to remove it to get Mozilla 1.8 to start. Once Mozilla was started and I 
had set it up, then I put IPLUGINW back and all was ok after that. 

I also install each version of Mozilla as its own new install, I NEVER migrate 
from earlier versions.

I hope this helps................pk.
