Re: latest nightly 5/20...

2017-05-20 Thread Frank-Rainer Grahl
Unless you compile SeaMonkey yourself stay away from the current Nightlies. 
They need a ton of patches and a fix in Gecko for bug 1363036. The one there 
just got an r-. It works but will change again. Without it SeaMonkey will just 
crash when you close a tab.


If you compile yourself add this and all the fixes for the bugs added in the 
2.52 meta bug since 05/13:

Re: Block Requests to specific domain?

Is it possible to prevent SeaMonkey making requests to a certain domain?
I know you can "block images" from a certain domain, but can you tell SM
to never make any kind of request to that domain?

e.g. a domain called ads.com, with servers, x.ads.com, y.ads.com

can you block any request to *.ads.com?

I did that kind of thing with an extension called URL n Extension Block. 
 You have to run it through the converter to get it to install in 
SeaMonkey.

Win2k was effectively NTv5, very stable (and very fast) in a corporate 
environment. Unfortunately, as others have pointed out, security updates 
are not available. The other big issue was x64 support.

My Win2k got slower and slower, so..
I took a hard drive, wiped it and installed Win2K SP2, then

Installed my various programs that i had been using.

Well, i have some rather puzzling problems.
1) SeaMonkey 2.9 refuses to allow DuckDuckGo.com to run; the computer
immediately and completely shuts down.
2) In newsgroups, the search facility finds nothing, period.
3) Cannot find option to filter out undesirable messages.

Help, please.

   #4) This link caused SM to crash.
   #5) Numerous links fail to work.

No offense intended, but I found Windows 2000 to be the least compatible
version of Windows that I ever had.  I had numerous crashes, and tons of
software that just wouldn't run on it.

I suppose Win ME's problem was it was a dead end, it was succeeded by XP 
Home which had a completely different code base.
