Best Regards @lex I had *exactly* that problem for a couple of hours yesterday - my Browser just became unuseable if you look at one of the threads above. I use Linux, I can see that you are using Windows. What I did was: - Close Seamonkey completely - Rename the profile directory - Create one with the original name such as ft45h78z.default - Copy the original to the ft45h78z.default There is absolutely no reason why that should help but it worked for me. I was actually planning to restore single directories/files from a previous backup into the new ft45h78z.default but it worked immediately. ymmv!

Have you tried launching Seamonkey in safe mode? Typically, this kind of problem is related to something in your user profile that's amiss. Extensions are a frequent culprit, and a similar troubleshooting approach is to disable all your extensions, and then reenable one by one, until you find which one is causing problems. However, sometimes it can happen that there's something else not quite right, and it's generally some setting in your prefs.js file. If that's the case, your better bet would be to start over with a new user profile in Seamonkey. If you export your data to Firefox, you might find that you have similar problems there. If you do, then it's a pretty solid indication that your problem is related to the profile, not to Seamonkey.
