what does the file bookmarks.html say?  Is it big and 
perhaps has all your bookmarks? If so, then from the 
browser, click on View, Show/Hide, Personal Toolbar. 
Did that work?


If not, then rename that html.bak file to something 
else with .html on the end.  Then from the browser, 
click on Bookmarks, Manage Bookmarks, then File, Open 
Bookmarks File, and find that file and open it.  Does 
your bookmarks show up now?

Re: SeaMonkey as Default Browser

I have SM set as my default browser, but there are rare occasions

address bar, even Microsoft.com, it opens up in SM. How can I
temporarily stop SM from being the default browser or at least allow
IE to open a page when I choose to do that? The part about default
browser is grayed out in SM's preferences because it's already set
as the default. When I go to Internet Options in my control panel
(Windows XP) or in IE, I checked off for IE to check to see if it's
the default browser, and I expected to see a screen asking me the
next time I opened it, but I haven't. Any suggestions?

Best way is to use the IE tab extension. This way, you stay within SM,
even when you need to use IE.

Thanks. I do have the IE tab extension, but I still want to be able to use 
IE itself if I want to. I used to be able to do that in some way even though 
SM was the default browser. When I clicked on links the browser that opened 
up was always SM--and that's what I still want. But I also used to be able 
to open IE, type a URL into the address bar, and have it open up in IE, not 
in SM. 



I needed to do something similar, pages not rendering correctly when 
visiting using Seamonkey, but okay when I use IE (haven't tried FF). I 
went to the above link and installed only to be told Installer not found.


Any ideas?

Eric
