However, what I see is that the same Web page -- my own on a Web server -- loads much slower if it is the first Web page I request right after launching SeaMonkey. If I clear my cache and then request it again, it load very quickly. -- David E. Ross Perhaps it was a smart decision for Hillary Clinton to use her private E-mail server while Secretary of State. According to current Secretary of State John Kerry, we know that the Russians and Chinese have hacked the State Department's servers. In the meantime, a claim by the Romanian hacker known as Guccifer (Marcel Lehel Lazar) that he hacked into Clinton's E-mail server proved false. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
