Hi Eric,
I'm not sure if this is a Windows only problem, and there is another thread
here on this, but since there has been no comment from you or anyone else, I thought I'd start a new thread to add a little clarity and hopefully push for a fix. This is a MAJOR cosmetic bug for anyone who is installing the latest version for the first time, and for this reason - and because it should be easy to fix - I think this one should be a TOP priority.
Also, I just confirmed that it still exists in 0.8.4.
The following should help you nail it down... it is easy to reproduce (and workaround)...
It is important to note that this problem ONLY happens if you install >=0.8 in a profile where you never had any other version of PM installed, OR you never placed the icon for any version <=0.7.3 on the toolbar.
To reproduce, start with a clean profile (go to C:\Documents & Settings\username\Application Data\, move the 'Mozilla' folder out to your desktop, start Firefox, let it create a new default profile for you)
Install 0.8.x, then go to View>Toolbars>Customize, you'll see the
messed up icons - this is with 0.8-0.8.4.
How to fix:
Uninstall 0.8.x - restart FFox - install 0.7.3 - restart FFox - add the toolbar icon to the toolbar (must do this while 0.7.3 is installed) - restart FFox, uninstall 0.7.3, restart FFox, install 0.8.x - restart FFox - voila, icons are correct.
Tested on XP Pro sp2 and Home, sp2, FFox 1.06
This will fix existing profiles.
