If you are indeed in the UK as your address indicates and if you are indeed using some version of Windows as your user agent header field indicates, then go go <https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/releases/2.40/win32/en-GB/>, download SeaMonkey Setup 2.40.exe, and install it over your existing SeaMonkey. Yes, I know that manually installing software is considered primitive. On the other hand, I have three reasons to do it. * I maintain both my own PC and my wife's. I want to download only once and install twice. * I want to control when to do an installation. I do not want time-critical tasks (e.g., stock transactions) interrupted or even killed while an automatic installation occurs. * Before I retired, I did software test and configuration, which I still do for my own PC. I use an application that logs all changes to my PC when I install new software or update existing software. To prevent contamination of the log from extraneous Internet activity, I download the installer, disconnect from the Internet, start the logging, and then install. Afterwards, I run the final phase of the logger and finally reconnect to the Internet. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>. Sarah Palin claims Bill Nye (the "Science Guy") is no more a scientist than she is. Nye has a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering. Palin has degree in communications with an emphasis on journalism. Somehow, engineering seems to be more scientific than journalism. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
