I am always reluctant to kill the current instance of SM based on having had either profile or bookmark corruption from doing so.

Re: Automatic 2.0.5 version
Pat Connors wrote: I was surprised this morning when I clicked on SM and found I had an automatic download from SeaMonkey that I didn't ask for. When the browser finally load, it said I now had 2.0.5. I have been on SM since Netscape stopped updating and this has never happened before. When I read the list, it was mentioned that this not the full 2.0.5 but a security update. What does that mean? Under Help, About SeaMonkey, it says I am using version 2.0.5. I guess I need a clarification on whether this is 5 or not 5. Pat, it would seem that you have had a non-automatic update performed on you. In Edit-Preferences-Advanced-Software Installation, you should be able to set up how you want SM to update, or to inform you of updates being available. At least that's how I read it!!

Download Manager SM 2.0.5
I have discovered the following issues with Download Manager (DM): (Basically, the same functionality of SM 1.1.18 needs to be carried forward/restored in 2.0.5.) Currently, 2.0.5 DM lacks the following: 1 -- If the DM in 2.0.5 is enabled and is either minimized or not the primary window on the desk top, SM 2.0.5 always brings it to the foreground (primary window) when any type of download is invoked from an email link, email attachment, or web page element. SM 1.1.18 did not do this in that the state of the DM window was never changed upon initiating a download. This 2.0.5 version creates a major hassle because it requires the user to constantly re-minimize the DM window in order to continue with whatever following downloads the user wishes to pursue. This becomes very annoying very quickly. The DM is often used to record a history of downloads. But the only way around this problem is to shut the DM off, which means that no download history is recorded. 2 -- In the SM 2.0.5 Edit/Preferences/Browser/Downloads settings window, you currently have the following: When starting a download: [_] Flash the Download Manager if it's already open. Otherwise: ( ) Open the Download Manager ( ) Open a progress dialog ( ) Don't open anything You should add these options to that list: When the Download Manager is minimized: (x) it should be brought to the foreground (default) ( ) it should stay minimized When the Download Manager is not the primary window: (x) it should be brought to the foreground (default) ( ) it should remain in the background 3 -- The DM history records from 1.1.18 were not migrated over to 2.0.5 when the conversion was done. That history needs to be preserved because sometimes it is necessary to do a re-download of a file. The DM history provided a very convenient way of finding that file and the URL with with to re-download it from. 4 -- It would be nice to be able to save a DM history records off to a file. This way, a person can keep the DM clean and to a minimum and yet still have access to the history of prior downloads. This should include the functionality of being able to select which records to save off. And as those are saved, they would then be removed from the DM history window. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

On the extreme left is the little triangle that does the menu bar show/hide and then comes the File Edit View options just like you have. Are you using a 1.x or 2.x version of SeaMonkey? I thought I used to be able to add and remove file type extensions at will, but that functionality seems to not be there any more :( Regards, Lee ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
