Mozilla 1.5 strange error

[Bryan Cassidy]

If I try to start mozilla 1.5 with 'mozilla' and I select the profile
which is default for now and click Start Mozilla I get the following
error

Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)
[nslProfileInternal.currentProfile]

I checked the file permissions on mozilla and they were

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2922 Nov 29 22:11 mozilla*

I tried a chown username:username mozilla with out luck. If I start
mozilla while su'ed to root I can launch the browser just fine. Any
ideas?
