Had the same problem. Upgraded to mozilla-1.6-5 and the problem persisted until I removed my ~/.mozilla directory and now it works fine.
OK...since deleting the whole ~/.mozilla directory is very painful (email, bookmarks, etc), what's the one magic file that will fix this?
I had this problem on a SuSE 9.1 machine running Mozilla 1.6-74.14. I removed only the ~/.mozilla/default/<id>/XUL.mfasl file and that fixed the problem.
Please note that FC1 and FC2 are no longer supported even by Fedora Legacy, and that FC3 and FC4 are supported by Fedora Legacy only for security issues. Please install a still supported version and retest. If this still occurs on FC3 or FC4 and is a security issue, please reopen the bug and assign it to that version and Fedora Legacy. If it still occurs on FC5, please reopen and assign to the correct version. mozilla was removed from FC6, although the seamonkey application suite, available from Fedora Extras, is derived from it. Similar bugs may also be present in firefox, so if the bug occurs with firefox in FC6, the bug should be reassigned to FC6 and the firefox component.
