Today I downloaded a version of Flashblock that finally works with
SeaMonkey. I've used Flashblock with Firefox for ages, but it's not

before it breaks]

Thanks for your considered reply, just back now from
the field. I retain my g4 tower for the same
reasons you list, but Im beginning to generate files
which are rather large (100+mb). Not friendly to that
