I'm stuck using AOL as my internet access. I can run Mozilla build ID 1999111612 or I can run AOL 4.0 software and browser, but not both at the same time
Could you please review the Bug Writing Guidelines (http://www.mozilla.org/ quality/bug-writing-guidelines.html) and provide more information? e.g. what happens when you try to run both?
If I have AOL up and running (whether logged on the internet or not), and I launch Mozilla, it displays the splash screen and then crashes with an error code of 11. If I have Mozilla up and running and I attempt to launch AOL, it begins loading various resources and then freezes completely just as it's finishing. Hope this helps clarify the prob

paulmac, do you guys have a test copy of AOL 5.0 and 4.0? We should make sure this interoperability works. We need to and reproduce this. The gal using the Browser lab for calender testing may have AOL sw for you to borrow. Thanks VoxxFX...we'll check it out.

I've had no luck reproducing this with the 1999111808 builds and AOL 4.0 The only variable that we haven't considered is the dial-up factor. No one here has repro'd this but then again no one inside the building is using AOL as their actully ISP. Leger, we hav ethe capability to do this right? I'll give it a spin if you show me where/how.
Yes. lchiang team, also found not problems. bmartin, can you help with a dialup reproduction?
O/S: Win98 Sys config: -Dell Latitude CPiA P450, 128MB Ram -AOL4.0 -Mozilla build 20000107. Not connected to the internet: Launching AOL then Mozilla doesn't crash my system Launching Mozilla then AOL doesn't crash my system Connected to the Internet via AOL4.0: Launching Mozilla, doesn't crash. However, the Mozilla build is unable to load web pages for reasons unknown to me.
I was unable to reproduce this bug using AOL5.0 and Latest Mozilla build 2000012500 over dial up.
Put in M13 release notes to use AOL 5.0. This will just need to be the workaround. Folks need to upgrade to AOL 5.0. Marking bug Won't Fix
