The other possibility is that you have a Zombie mozilla process hanging 
around in the background and it's trying to create a new profile.  
Normally you'd get the profile manager if this happened though.

Also, do you own the files inside of .mozilla?  There are several 
directories in there.  Chowning the whole thing might not be a bad idea 
regardless, just to rule out any ownership possibilities.
