Subject:   Firefox 0.9

I've just installed Firefox 0.9 and find out that

A    SSL is not running and
B    Ican no longer have Firefox and Thunderbird running at the same time.

Has anyone got any idea on how to fix these problems

I don't want to move up to the current Thunderbird until Firefox is 
running corectly.

Regards
Dennis.

I can answer B for you. On the Warpzilla Hints & Tips page the following 
method is used to run multiple versions concurrently

You can run multiple versions of Mozilla / Firebird / Thunderbird at the 
same time, as long as you are careful. You must use different profiles 
for each version, and run a little script to start it (such as 
mozilla.cmd):

SET MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1
SET LIBPATHSTRICT=T
SET MOZILLA_HOME=<profile_path>
SET PATH=<mozilla_directory>;%PATH%
SET BEGINLIBPATH=<mozilla_directory>
mozilla.exe

MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 keeps Mozilla from creating the parent message window, 
so two Mozilla's can no longer detect that each other is running. 
LIBPATHSTRICT=T forces DLLs to be loaded from the correct place, instead 
of using what is already in memory (this feature requires a recent OS/2 
kernel).

I used this basic procedure bt replacing mozilla with firefox where 
appropriate, even so I haven't tried it with thunderbird the same basic 
principle should work.

The Warpzilla Hints & Tips page http://www.os2bbs dot com/os2news/Warpzilla.html

I was looking at using thunderbird but I am not sure how to migrate my 
mail from mozilla. Do you have any ideas?

Ken
