It is not only a question of convenience. It is a question of general usability and a program being fit for a purpose. If Seamonkey "just hangs" messing up with disk access, killing my ability to use functions of a program, for ,say, more then 4 seconds, then it is not a program for me (Ad I am using Netscape and Mozilla and Seamonkey from .. forever) Some bug introduced somewhere in 3 releases ago that started behaving differently and not paying attention to interactivity and user benefit. Like I am on telephone call, watching e-mail, then someone calls and I need to see a web page and in the middle of scrolling down, Seamonkey freezes roaring the disk for 30 seconds. Then it stops for few seconds and then again start molesting the disk. What should I do during that time? To start alternative browser and I am already doing it for a month... _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
