I have a personal firewall, Zonealarm, installed and inorder to use Mozilla I had to authorize Mozilla as a server. This makes me very uncomfortable. Mozilla also crashes at startup with ZoneAlarm running when denied server capabilities.

This is a browser bug, not architecture. Reassigning.

Need more information on this. What were you trying to do, just use http, or ftp? What happened -- what sort of failure: assertion, dialog, nothing?

Subject: Bug 28361 Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2000 08:17:35 -0500 From: Arn Burkhoff <arnb@myself.com> Organization: Unorganized Masses Inc. To: warren@netscape.com In the commments for this bug you asked what I was trying to do. I was attempting to start Mozilla. I had it authorized as a program that could access the internet but it required server status in order to run and not crash. A simple method of testing this is to install ZoneAlarm(it's free for personal use) at www.zonealarm.com and see what occurs. -- Arn http://www.injersey.infi.net/~arneb/

Does it crash in NECKO.DLL or in UCONV.DLL? There are files for these two start up bugs using ZoneAlarm filed under bug 28403 respectively bug 30831. This information could be useful in order to solve these.

These are the details from the failure. Simultaneaoulsy Zonealarm produces a warning saying Mozilla.exe was prevented from acting as a server. MOZILLA caused an invalid page fault in module UCONV.DLL at 0177:607f4905.

Thanks a lot for filing. I added your comment on the missing server permissions to bug 28403. This will help a lot. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 28403 ***
