Slackware 10 Mozilla 1.7 hangup.

Nice post guys:
find /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7 -perm 600 -uid 0 -exec chmod 644 {} \;
Fixed for me...

Also try Firefox, been using lately, because mozilla wouldn't work, and I have fallen in love with it. Can't wait for when it reaches the 1.0.

Again, great post and good work; thanks

go over to a "T" the directions given in this thread about setting permissions, you might even have to set that damned chrome directory all 777 in order to get it to work as a regular user but it will work, i'm using it right now....

cheers

do the same procedure as before but for file which are set to 600 permissions :
find /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7 -perm 600 -uid 0 -exec chmod 644 {} \;

And look for /usr/share/idl/mozilla-1.7 directory
all file here should be -rw-r--r--, if not do chmod 644 /usr/share/idl/mozilla-1.7/*
and to make sure, chmod 755 /usr/share/idl/mozilla-1.7

Had the same problem, found this thread by googling, executed the above, all now works. Thanks alot, keefaz, you guru's are the best!
