I am now with a new company. I uninstalled Thunderbird and re-installed it. When I opened it up, my old company stuff was in there. I apparently didn’t uninstall some components.
In my computer’s Control Panel – Add or Remove Programs there’s a list of items starting with MSXML. Perhaps I should have removed these. Are they components of Thunderbird?
Whatever, for XP it is “Control Panel > Add-Remove Programs” but it looks like you’ve already been there. The next step is uninstalling your profile. I think it is pretty well the same as the link I gave you but perhaps you’d be best work with this one (which definitely states XP):

In case that looks confusing, all you are really trying to do is follow this path down as far as opening the Application Data folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\<your Windows user name>\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\<Profile name>
You will have to unhide files and folders to see to the Application Data folder (as given in the link). When you are in there look for a folder named Thunderbird and delete it. That should remove all the associated profile stuff that follows and do the trick.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome – thanks
