Before I could try the suggestions provided here, a Windows update
rebooted my office computer overnight (aargh, it's not supposed to do
that!).

This morning a SM window asked if I wanted to restore my previous
session, which was odd because I never leave a session running
overnight. I clicked "yes" and a button then appeared on the taskbar
suggesting a session was running, but it wouldn't expand by
left-clicking on it. So I right-clicked, selected "restore," and there
was a SM browser window with dozens of tabs open, one for each time I
tried to open a link or attachment from SM mail. I had opened and
closed dozens of other SM browser windows over the past few days, but
I guess that one was still running in the background, but not visible
in the taskbar. Odd, but I guess the problem is solved, at least on
this machine!
