Have they tried b1?  At least one of the crashes on startup (if not  
THE one) was MSN related and Felipe had fixed in in the most recent  
version of pecan which is now in the beta.

I have the same issue on my machine but I see it as more of an  
annoyance than a blocker by any stretch.  A fix would be nice but I'm  
not looking to hold 1.3.1 up on it as this is meant to be a quick  
release to fix some of the major launch problems. IMO that can wait  
till someone gets to it.

These would be fine if someone has a chance to look over them.   
Otherwise same as the last, definitely not a blocker.
