What is the program you are using to log all PC changes? Thanks!

Re: noscript extension

[Iceman]

Try going to your Profiles folder and delete all references to NoScript that 
you can find.

P.S. NoScript can try your patience a little bit, but if you want your browsing 
free of Javascript etc. it is still a useful extension to have. JMHO.

But, I'm trying to understand why the auto-update isn't working. It's
related to other users who are non-technical and who don't have admin

If you are indeed in the UK as your address indicates and if you are
indeed using some version of Windows as your user agent header field
indicates, then go go
,
download SeaMonkey Setup 2.40.exe, and install it over your existing
SeaMonkey.

Yes, I know that manually installing software is considered primitive.
On the other hand, I have three reasons to do it.

*I maintain both my own PC and my wife's.  I want to download only
once
and install twice.

*I want to control when to do an installation.  I do not want
time-critical tasks (e.g., stock transactions) interrupted or even
killed while an automatic installation occurs.

*Before I retired, I did software test and configuration, which I

 Normally, when I file a Bookmark, I want to put it in a particular
 Group/Sub-Folder, but, with this Windows version of SM 2.40, I'm
 having
 troubles getting to particular Sub-Folders, e.g. somebody recently
 posted a link to http://info.cern.ch/ with a claim that it was the
 first
 *ever* website, so I thought I'd save the link in my "General"
 Sub-Folder of my Bookmarks.

 Previously, a sub-screen would open showing my Bookmarks file
 structure
 and I would just select the Sub-Folder that I wanted the new
 Bookmark
 saved to, then click "O.K." and ... job done.

 Now, I think, when I click on Bookmarks->File Bookmark, I am taken
 to a
 "New Bookmark" screen, which allows me to add bits and pieces about
 the
 new bookmark, but doesn't allow me to select the particular
 sub-folder
 that I want the Bookmark saved to  unless it happens to be
 one of
 the half dozen or so listed on the "Folder:" drop-down of the
 sub-screen. Where this list comes from, I don't know ... unless it
 is a
 listing of the sub-folders to which I may have previously filed
 bookmarks directly to.

 Have I started doing something wrong?? How do I get back to the old
 situation where I could file a bookmark to any of the forty or more
 sub-folders in my Bookmarks Folder??

 (Lately, any bookmarks I save are just being added to the bottom of
 the
 Bookmarks drop-down! :-(  )

 Hmm!! Looking at our UserAgents

 You are Win 10 and include FF/43.0 and your addressbook works
 Mine Win7 no mention of FF and my addressbook fails

 Don't know if that might help any devs lurking.

 My default is to disable "Advertise Firefox compatibility".  If I have a
 problem from that, my first recourse is to use PrefBar to set my user
 agent string to
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101
SeaMonkey/2.40, NOT Firefox/45.0
 If that does not work, I use PrefBar to revert to my real UA string and
 then have PrefBar check the "Advertise Firefox compatibility" checkbox.
 And if that does not work, I have PrefBar uncheck that checkbox and set
 my user agent string to
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/45.0

 "Advertise Firefox compatibility" is not always effective.  I have found
 Web sites that cannot handle the presence of "SeaMonkey" in the
 resulting UA string
 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/43.0 SeaMonkey/2.40
 I do not know whether the servers are parsing the entire UA string or
 merely require "Firefox" to be at the end.  I just know that the mere
 presence of "SeaMonkey" in the string causes problems at some Web sites.

 By the way, when I find an organization's site that is doing incorrect
 sniffing, I sometimes send a letter (US Postal System, not E-mail) to
 the CEO explaining why they have a broken Web server.
