Two Macs, both running 10.3.5. One works beautifully with Mozilla/Firefox/Netscape/Camino. The other Mac unexpectedly quits shortly after launching any of these four browsers.

I have repaired permissions, run DiskWarrior, tried a 'test' user account, and deleted all Mozilla-related preferences. 100% unexpected quits.

One clue: this crashing happened initially when my G4 Tower was running Jaguar (not sure which specific version). When I updated to Panther, the Mozilla-based browers all magically worked again. Then, it seems one of the OS updates (10.3.2?) killed the Mozilla-based browsers and it hasn't worked since.

Is there a not-so-obviously-named system-level preferences somewhere that should be trashed?

Does this happen even with a fresh user account? If so, have you tried trashing /Library/Mozilla?

Yes, my "test" user account was a "fresh" user account. And, yes I deleted /Library/Mozilla and everything I could find with the word Mozilla in it.
