Thread: I just got the weirdest error message in Thunderbird

i sent e-mail, before sent it, thunderbird gave me error message i've never seen before in life. reads follows:

could not initialize broser's security component. cause problems files in browser's profile directory. please check directory has no read/write restrictions , hard disk not full of close full. recommended exit browser , fix problem. if continue use browser session, might see incorrect browser behaviour when accessing security features.

oddly enough, clicked ok , thunderbird sent e-mail anyways. other night, upgraded latest firefox via ubuntuzilla, , i'm wondering if has it.

weird thing noticed after done sending message, entire menu bar in firefox grayed out still functional. had done clicked on e-mail link in flash applet. tested things going employer's website, found e-mail address, clicked on it, , sent test message myself see if got aforementioned error message again, did, again, let me send it. also, menu bar in firefox in normal black print, can insensitive yet still-functional text got earlier flash-related.

still works ok, not without couple of minor hiccups. can shed light on what's going on here? it's sunday morning here gotta run , go church.

thanx in advance,
fred
