Firebird themes work here? just change firefox in the url to firebird... they haven't updated at the theme site yet. if the themes on that page will not work it will say so... most of them were for the nightly 0.8 builds anyway so most of them do in fact work.

gaviaal Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 I can't get it to work! I used the FireBird 0.7 Milestone (on XP SP1). Just installed FireFox 0.8, but it won't start. I've tried rebooting, even uninstalling. Does anyone have an idea how i could solve this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried rebooting, even uninstalling. Does anyone have an idea how i could solve this? Hmm... how about try a fresh install?.... delete all old Firebird directories(MozillaFirebird, Mozilla, and Phoenix) before install a new Firefox. Some of the old extensions on Firebird 0.7 might not work with Firefox 0.8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dessimat0r Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Its probably to do with extensation that are still installed. Go into C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Phoenix\Profiles\<your profile>\<blah>\chrome\chrome.rdf and remove any extentions you installed from it.
