The first argument to NS_InitEmbedding is the path to the Mozilla bin
directory. If you pass nsnull in this arg it assumes the current
directory is the bin directory. If it isn't then you may find your app
won't work properly.
Therefore either copy your app to the Mozilla (or embedding) bin dir and
run from there, or supply the bin dir, e.g.
nsCOMPtr<nsILocalFile> binDir;
NS_NewLocalFile("c:\\mozilla\\bin", TRUE, getter_AddRefs(binDir));
NS_InitEmbedding(binDir, provider);
