SOLVED (I think) !! Searching about:config for 'storage' in both Seamonkey and Firefox I found that 'dom.storage.enabled' was set to True in Firefox and False in Seamonkey. Setting Seamonkey to match Firefox, I am able to load Mega.co.nz in both browsers. Found this after the fact: http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-disable-new-kind-cookie-called-dom-storage.htm Apparently this setting cannot be changed from the GUI (hope I'm wrong about this). My original response to your email: Starting with the error console open and cleared the listing and loaded mega.co.nz. The browser displays the error which I have listed earlier about not being able to initialize local storage. I cleared the error message The the error console adds the error: TypeError: localStorage is null https://mega.co.nz/secureboot.js?r=1434585458 followed by 7 warning messages. Like you the only permission entry is in Data Manager for geoip. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
