Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Thunderbird/Firefox DLL conflict?

Content Type: text/plain

I have a weird problem with Thunderbird (1.5) and Firefox (1.5.0.1). I
have installed both and had them running. Thunderbird still works just
fine. Several times recently, however, when I try to start Firefox from
a program object, I get a window saying that there is a problem with it.
I lists 5 possible reasons and offers to let me modify the properties.
The icon for the program object has reverted to the default. No amount
of futzing with the properties will get things back. I have to delete
the entire Firefox directory tree, then re-install by unzipping from the
distribution. Firefox will then work until the next boot whereupon the
icon has reverted to the default and FF will no longer work. Running
from a command line, I get:

SYS0193: E:/Mozilla\Firefox\firefox.exe cannot be run in and OS/2 session.

This is driving me nuts! Any suggestions?

eCS 1.2MR with all ECSMT updates.

I remember that there is some program to track down dll conflicts, but I
can't seem to find it on Hobbes or Google.

Thanks!
