SM As Default Mail
Wife running SM 1.1.10 cuz she doesn't need to upgrade. New computer - Windows 7 Every time she opens the mail component a popup alert says SM isn't the default mail app - interesting because Win7 doesn't come with a mail application - and asks if you want it to be default and a check box to not ask again. Boxed IS checked but it still asks every time. What now? An entry in about:config maybe?

Boxed IS checked but it still asks every time. What now? An entry in about:config maybe? The issue here is that SM versions prior to version 2 were not ready for the User Account Control setup introduced with Windows Vista (and still present with Windows 7). I'd first try to make IE the default browser, then some other browser (e.g. Opera), then try making SM the default. If that still doesn't work I'd try to start SM with admin rights once. You can also try the Set your default programs method or anything else described on the following page: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Default_browser In any case these are suggestions I cannot check myself since I'm using SM 2 on WinXP (and Linux, like now).

Re: SM As Default Mail
Interviewed by CNN on 16/5/2010 12:22, Jay Garcia told the world: Wife running SM 1.1.10 cuz she doesn't need to upgrade. Uhhh... sorry, but that's quite an old version. She's running with unpatched security bugs. She DOES need to upgrade. At the very least, update it to the latest 1.1.x branch version -- I believe it's 1.1.19. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Re: MASTER PASSWORD OVER KILL !
JOLAN1 wrote: Aloha! There is something very wrong with SeaMonkey 2.04, or my installation is somehow badly screwed up! Initially, it asked for our Master Password at logon, which I disabled in about:config. But... subsequently, it asks for the Master Password when: downloading e- mail, accessing any one of our credit accounts, accessing banking accounts, making auto payments, paying for our internet service, on and on, even wants a Master Password to get on MozzilaZine !!! Real bother and we're using Master Password so often...might as well not have one. If you don't want MP protection turn it off. I don't know what you messed with in config, but the way you disable that is to set it to an empty string. This past week, we had to hire a temporary book keeper because ours was out sick. The first day we had to be out of the office; came back to find one very frustrated woman! She couldn't access anything she need to on the internet because she didn't have the Master Password. Cost me $$ for the day -- upsetting, to say the least. Yes, if you had just disabled your MP then the temp could have stolen every passwork in the machine. Or do you totally trust your temps? All our accounts are user name/password protected. Adding the Master Password is overkill, useless and absurd. I've told everyone to uninstall 2.04 and put 1.18 back on until we can get some fix for this. There is nothing to fix other than your understanding of the correct usage. Is there any way to disable all these requests for a Master Password ??? I've mentioned it here, others have posted it, if you want it off, turn it off. You now have zero security. Anyone can view all the saved passwords in clear. Setting the ask me later config works fine, as long as you have an idea what ask me later implies. Another issue I've been seeing recently is that 2.04 starts slowing down the longer I've been on the Internet, to the point that it can't connect to web sites, like Yahoo News, for example. Tried shutting down and restarting, same issue. Meanwhile, 1.1.18 works like a charm...all the time. For values of charm mapping to with no security. BTW: the correct way to do this is to have a profiles for temps, having only the passwords they need, and have an employee enter the MP so the temps can't use it to view passwords. Giving a temp MP or running without one is utterly unsafe. If SM has a fault it's that there is no way to have a sub-master password to use the information but not view it. -- Bill Davidsen david...@tmr.com We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked. - from Slashdot ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
