If you had read the other messages on this forum you would have known there are more people with exactly the same problem.

I've got the same problem, too, on 2 computers. Both have win95 installed without mozilla or ie 4+. They do have Netscape 4.x.

Can't somebody debug the problem? It seems there are a lot of people that can't enjoy this great browser...

i found the same thing, having installed on win98 with ns4 and ns6 installed. it worked fine following a reboot, running k prior to ns4.

The startup-problem is (partly) solved at #kmeleon on irc.mozilla.org:

<rOn> kmeleon 0.1 uses the BCG library for the nice toolbar buttons and menus, and this library requires some stuff from ie4/5. we are getting rid of it for v0.2

I have the same problem too. Clicking on the desktop icon doesn't start up the program. My laptop is a Pentium II running on Win95, with IE 5 and Netscape 4.6.

this problem depends on what kind of connection you have
it works perfect with Dail-up
but it doesnt work with LAN

I figured out one fix is to find and updated version of he dll "mfc42.dll" min the windows system folder. The only site i have found to get this off of is www.napigator.com.

Getting a newer version of mfc42.dll (version 6.0.300) was the solution for me. Thanks, BooBoo!
