When I start Aurora it is showing XML Parsing error and without opening.

The error message shown reads as below in full: ___________________________________________________________

XML Parsing Error: undefined entity Location: chrome://browser/content/browser.xul Line Number 540, column 9: 

                          <button default="true" <="" pre="">

^

___________________________________________________________

I have not noticed any recent updates happening to Aurora release though there might be add-on updates gone in recently.
I do not see any start in safe mode exe either.
I have tried running as an administrator but no user (it anyway does not look like an authority issue)
Please help.

Other details if needed:
Win 7 64-bit.
Intel Core2Duo 2.2

Aurora updates almost daily. Probably a fault in the most recent version. Wait a day or two and it should be corrected.

Or download and install Autota again.

the latest aurora build worked for me again - just download it from www.mozilla.org/firefox/channel/#aurora & install it on top of your current installation.
