It's fine but what I could really use is a MozillaAuditByRay .cmd or
.exe that checks and sees if everything is where you suggest it be, and
then makes suggestions about what to change.

MozillaAuditByRay would at least do the following, BASED ON SOME OF WHAT
YOU WROTE IN YOUR MESSAGE:

- Check the environment for all *MOZ* variable names and see if the
ones that show up meet your criteria.
- Check BOOT:\OS2\DLL\ for the necessary DLLs, make sure they are
current, and then check all appropriate drives to see if there are any
duplicately-named DLLs anywhere else.
- Check the PATH environment variable and see if any of the specified
paths contain Mozilla executables, and if so are there any anomalies.
- Check the OS2*.INI files for any entries which Mozilla puts there (I
don't know if there are any).
- Check for Mozilla objects and report on what is found (I think these
are stored in the OS2*.INI files somewhere).
- Do additional checks for the other items you mentioned, such as
Bookmarks, Address Books, Passwords, plus things like Cookies.
