Default Mac - updated desktop "loading" never finishes

Zimbra on my Mac (10.5.6) asked to upgrade from .92 to 1.0(C) which I did. When Zimbra starts the screen shows "Loading" but it never finishes. I have tried to go back to .92 but the message claims that installing a previous version is not allowed.

I found some uninstall instructions that were old and they did not work.

What are the "current" uninstall instructions?

This usually means there's a javascript error. Could you try this Yahoo! Zimbra Desktop FAQ - Zimbra :: Wiki

that's the only "error". if you want warnings there are lots. I could not find what file the warnings were saved in and you can only get one at atime.

warnings are usually not relevant. we are looking into this and will see if there's a quick workaround.

Please help us to collect one more important information on your mac:
- run Mail.app (from spotlight), setup an account if you have not done so.
- go to Mail->Preferences->General

What's the value of the "Default email reader" field ? Thanks.
