My primary workstation is running FC3. If I have thunderbird running on the FC3 box (but not firefox or mozilla), then ssh into a RHEL3 box and type 'mozilla', the mozilla script will exit without opening any windows. If I then exit thunderbird, and type 'mozilla' again, mozilla will launch from the RHEL3 box without a problem.
