All Firefox users who have installed the Java plugin, JRE versions below 1.6.0_31 or between 1.7.0 and 1.7.0_2. Perhaps it doesn't recognize 1.7.0_4?

How to find out what font family/size Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 used for main mail messages window?
Greetings, In the main mail messages window, TB 2.x seemed to have used a lighter weight font than SM uses. Someone already posted a Stylish way to adjust the font in the main SM mail window, which works successfully. Any thoughts on what to adjust the font family to in order to obtain what TB 2.x used? We have both Linux and Windows installations, and on both OS's the SM font is heavier than TB was.

Re: Does user agent spoofing should work for extensions ?
MCBastos wrote, on 11/5/2012 23:57: Interviewed by CNN on 11/05/2012 18:37, Rubens told the world: I have been able to access my bank services using Seamonkey by installing the User Agent Switcher extension and configuring that to spoof Firefox 11. Now, the bank is requiring customers to install a proprietary security extension developed for Firefox, but that does not install, saying it is not compatible with Seamonkey 2.9.1. I have also tried to install the checkCompatibility 1.3 extension but it did not help. Rubens, I'm guessing you are from Brazil like me? Well... here's the thing: those security add-ons apparently have binary modules, and as such they *have* to be recompiled for every new Mozilla browser version. Hacking the RDF is not enough. For instance, Itaú STILL hasn't released a Firefox 12-compatible version of their plugin, so I wasn't able to update Firefox yet (they tell me the new version should be ready by May 16, by the way... I don't know how is the situation in other banks, but it seems to be about the same, for all banks that use G-Buster security technology) Even if you hack the RDF to list Seamonkey as compatible, you still probably won't be able to install the plugin in Seamonkey 2.9.1 -- because it's the wrong Gecko version. It *might* be possible to fool it into installing on Seamonkey 2.8, or perhaps after the new version of the plugin is (finally) released. Myself, I sorta gave up on using Seamonkey for banking. It's the banks' fault for using heavy-handed, poorly-supported security solutions. What I'm doing now is this: I have a folder with Portable Firefox 11 which I use *only* for banking. That way, its out-of-date status does not impact my regular browsing. Being the Portable version, it doesn't try to steal the default browser setting from Seamonkey (and I can even have a regular, updated, copy of Firefox too, if I wish). It's a bother, but it's still WAY, WAY better than using Internet Explorer for banking -- besides all the reasons not to like IE (and I see you are on XP, so you can't even have the slightly-less-evil IE9), the Internet Explorer version of the G-Buster so-called security solution installs as a rootkit, and causes all sorts of problems. Hello MC, yes I am from Brazil like you. You went right to the point: I am a Itaú bank customer, and in order to avoid all the hassles caused by the G-Buster solution (and also because I hate the evil IEs) I was using Firefox 11 to do my home banking. Surprisingly, after abandoning Firefox 11 and upgrading my old Seamonkey 1.1.19 to version 2.9.1, I was still able to use my account *even without* installing the G-Buster extension. After a while, somehow they noticed that and since two days ago that is no longer working. Thanks for sharing you portable Firefox 11 solution, it is a great idea and for sure I am going to use it, hoping we can go back to Seamonkey for home banking some day in the future. About the install.rdf hacking as commented by some fellows, I really did that successfully for some extensions, but for this specific case it didn´t work.

From what I've read, the idea seems to be that the user must install Internet security software, but it's not enough that they do so, they must install precisely the bank's preferred ISS. On every ^%$#^% machine they ever use to access the account.
