Attaching Files Crashes Thunderbird
I just installed Thuderbird (31.1.2). My operating system is Win XP (SP3). I cannot attach files. I can send emails fine when there are no attachments. The "compose" window freezes when I click "Attach." I have made sure that Flash and Java are up to date. I also deleted my antivirus software thinking it might be the cause. Any ideas?

What is your anti-virus software?
Originally, AVG was installed, but I removed the software thinking it may be the problem. However, Thunderbird acts exactly the same after uninstalling the anti virus software.
Try to start *Windows* in safe mode with networking enabled.

- Win7 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Start-your-computer-in-safe-mode
- XP http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/boot_failsafe.mspx
Still in Windows safe mode, start Thunderbird in safe mode.

Does the problem go away?
