I have started getting the above error message from my cox.net NNTP 
server. I use Cox, Mozilla, and Microsoft news servers, but only get the 
error message on the Cox server. Is there a setting in Seamonkey that 
I'm missing?


BTW, I've used the Cox server for several years and just started getting 
this error. I think it's a Cox problem and have requested support, but 
thought I'd attack the problem from this side as well.


Thanks,


I get just about the same error message with Outlook Express, so it's a 
Cox problem.


Sorry for the interruption...

I didn't find any other reports on the forum so have to assume it's 
something stupid I did to cause this.


Any ideas?

Windows XP Professional Media Center SP2
Pentium D 3.00 GHz
3.5 GB RAM


It has to be a Windows XP problem. Since I posted the above message I've 
gotten errors about ntdll.dll, js3250.dll, gklayout.dll, rdf.dll, and 
xpcom_core.dll.


In Internet Explorer I've seen errors involving mshtml.dll and jscript.dll.

Looks like it may be reinstall time.


He's back! A couple of years ago, my old computer started shutting down 
at odd times. I ran a stress test on my RAM and discovered a flaky RAM 
stick. About a year ago, I swapped RAM on my present HP Media Center 
computer going from 1.5Mb to 4Mb (Windows recognized somewhere around 
3.5Mb). Anyway, when my present computer shut down a couple of times 
recently, I figured it was a video card problem, so I reseated the AGP 
card as well as the PCI cards. This morning I ran a RAM stress test 
which it promptly failed. I removed the offending stick and re-ran the 
test and it passed with flying colors.


I have the feeling that the problem has been flaky RAM the whole time.

A major DOH, and DUH on me... :>))

The same thing happened to me. I just went back to my old stand-by, v

Sounds like a plan...

There do not appear to be 'file extensions' associated

How can I get SeaMonkey to field "internet shortcuts"?

Can anyone see where I have made errors? Thanks.


Are you running NoScript, by any chance? I went to the site and had to 
tell NoScript to temporarily allow the page. Then when I clicked on a 
video, I had to click it again to allow Flash to work.


Another one is FlashBlock. You might have to tell it to allow Flash 
content from this URL.

As I said in another thread, IE is programmed to "guess" what a Web
developer meant when invalid HTML was used.  Mozilla's Gecko engine and
other browsers do the same thing.

The problem is that different browsers guess differently.  Thus, the
results in IE and SeaMonkey will likely not be the same when trying to
display a pathological Web page.  If the invalid HTML is sufficiently
buggy, one browser might (by unplanned coincidence) guess correctly
while another will just display garbage.


This happen when the website developper use only a microsoft tool to 
create the site, and use only IE to check his pages...if all goes 
well, he think that it's the case for all the world.



According to various surveys (including my own), IE's share of the
browser market has declined to 45%-60%.  This is down as much as 44%
since a peak in March 2003.  (Gecko browsers now hold 33%-46% of the
market.)

Any developer who creates a Web site "best viewed with Internet
Explorer" has tied his or her fate to a fading star and is ignoring half
the potential audience.


You and I know that. It seems some sites are way too casual about changing.
It really seems they don't take the 'net seriously enough!
This is not some fad, a whim on the part of computer geeks!  This is the 
future, and it's time they allowed their IT guys freer reign, to make 
their internet sites more sophisticated!


And capable of working with SeaMonkey, of course!  :-D

And pay their people what they're really worth!!!
