Today, Adobe released an emergency patch to its Flash Player plugin.
Apparently, someone figured out how to use the player to deliver
ransomware (a type of malware that locks you out of your computer until
you pay the ransom).

The new version is 21.0.0.213, and you can get it here:
.

The other bundled stuff (McAfee, TrueKey) is optional; you don't need to
accept that to patch the Flash Player.


I've twice clicked on that link and downloaded the 1.1 MB installer  
and then got an error when installing it!! Hmm, my Win7 OS is WOW 64, 
but that adobe page is identifying me just as 64bit Windows . I 
might try the other link posted by Thee Chicago to see if it's any more 
successful!!


But whilst downloading the 20 MB Windows MSI from there, I checked my 
Help->About Plugins and it showed I had Shockwave Flash 
NPSWF32_21_0_0_213.dll already installed!! :-)



Let's be careful out there.

Somewhere along the line I had the 'grippies' in the seamonkey mail
window made larger.  There are two that I am interested in; one
between the list of messages and mail accounts and the other below
the list of messages.

How do I change the size of these grippies to make them wider?


What View -> Layout are you using?  With all of the three options
the
first grippy you list is a vertical one.  Making it wider would mean
making the whole vertical splitter wider.  The later grippy is a
horizontal one except in the "Vertical" layout.  Making it wider may
mean different things.  Which one you're after?


Both.  I want to make both a bit larger (wider, easier to select
with the mouse).


I'm still unsure if by wider you mean just thicker (depending on
horizontal/vertical orientation), but try placing the following
rules in
your "userChrome.css" [1], and see if it is all you need:

#folderpane-splitter > grippy,
#threadpane-splitter > grippy {
   min-width: 10px;
   background-position: center;
}

#folderpane-splitter[orient="vertical"] > grippy,
#threadpane-splitter[orient="vertical"] > grippy {
   min-width: 115px;
   min-height: 10px;
}

Adjust the '10px' to your liking.

[1] http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css


 and, of course, reboot SeaMonkey so the UserChrome.css changes are
incorporated into prefs.js! :-)


That is not incorporated into prefs.js, but into the interface
(controlled presumably by xulstore.json).


Is that right?? All this time, I though UserChrome.css stuff went into
prefs.js  or am I thinking user.js stuff gets copied into prefs.js??



user.js goes into prefs.js


O.K., Ta! So the brain is still working  just a bit slower!! :-)

What is going on?

Is there something I need to do in Seamonkey to get it talking to the

If I Compose an new post then Seamonkey again has access to the listed

On what newsgroup server do you see this?  Do you see this with
news.mozilla.org?

I'd just like to chime in to say that this happens to me on occasion 
(using SM 2.39 and 2.40 on OS X). Not really sure how it fixes itself 
(as I only check USENET newsgroups a few times a day), but it has never 
been annoying enough for me to really notice.

Just use Stylish:

https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/stylish

It allows you to experiment without restarting and has the added benefit of not 
requiring '!important' declarations, almost always.

Please explain.



I can't because I uninstalled it. Only had it for testing anyway. Maybe 
only fired it up every couple months.

On what newsgroup server do you see this?  Do you see this with
news.mozilla.org?
