>I am wondering if I am the only person having this problem with
>MozillaFirebird .6.1.
>I have had Firebird .6.0 installed and running well since it's release.
>This morning I was talking to an os/2 user in an irc chat and he was
>having problems with the MozillaFirebird.exe working with a recent
>download of MozillaFirebird .6.1. In an attempt to see what was
>happening, I deleted my Firebird and downloaded the newer version,
>unzipped to a directory and tried to run the MozillaFirebird.exe. When I
>did, the MozillaFirebird.exe properties notebook comes up and the program
>isn't executed. I downloaded the Firebird .6.1 from here:
>
>http://ftp28f.newaol.com/pub/firebird/releases/0.6.1/contrib/
>However, I got the same results when I downloaded from the nightly
>build's
>page and the build was dated August 10th.
>Any suggestions?
