Yes, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and other
"founding fathers" owned slaves.  However, they created
a nation.  Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, Thomas
"Stonewall" Jackson and other "heroes" of the
Confederacy tried to tear the nation apart.  Statues
and other monuments to those "heroes" of the
Confederacy actually celebrate traitors and treason.

In my experience, something funky happening with config options (in 
prefs.js) is the most frequent cause.  That said, I've seen it happen 
once or twice where a problem clears with a one-time run in Safe Mode, 
and then restarting in normal mode.


Fortunately, plug-ins are now pretty rare (except for Flash). On my 
own setups, I deleted Flash more than a year ago, and haven't had 
problems, but then I rarely need (or want) animated content that 
requires Flash.


If you have extensions and problems clear in Safe Mode, then the 
normal troubleshooting is to sequentially enable or disable, until the 
problem goes away (and you have identified which extension). If you 
have a lot of extensions, it may be slightly faster to disable half of 
them, and then sequentially enable or disable, until the problem 
appears or goes away.


If it's a problem extension, then you might be able to recover the 
functionality of the extension simply by removing and re-adding, 
rather than having to sacrifice the extension entirely.

Windows 7
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101
SeaMonkey/2.48
Adblock Plus, Flash, and HTML5 Media enabled

I just now entered "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom Whiate" into
DuckDuckGo.  That was a popular melody some 60 years ago.  DuckDuckGo
returned (among other hits)
.  I got both video and
audiovia YouTube.  I do knot know whether it was via Flash or HTML5 Media.

Note:  HTML5 Media has been an internal capability of SeaMonkey for a
few versions now.  No plugin is required.

First try safe mode, then try with a fresh profile.
