Re: I can no longer see my photos inside my google albums
Good points. I did inded already have the latest Flash plugin. And, for Ad Block: I disabled it for Picasa, what didn't help. So I decided to disable all my Add-Ons, restarted Seamonkey, but that doesn't help either. I now also asked Seamonkey to check all my plug-ins. Nothing special to mention (only Java was, again, backlevel) But, I used Switch Profile, and remarked that the same plug-ins ara active in my test profile, were I can correctly see my Picasa photo's. Conclusion: - Plug-ins don't play any role here - My Add-ons are not the cause either. I'll re-enable them all. What about purging all certificates? I guess they will be recreated when needed, without too much work for me (apart from some Yes I agree click).

Couldn't OP just create a message filter on the account's Inbox that would place a copy in some folder under Local Folders upon arrival. That way all messages automatically get a local copy. Probably want to set filter to run *after* processing junk filter. Then all he has to do is every once and a while sort Inbox by date and delete old messages which would clear out the server but he should not lose them because they were already backed up locally in Local Folders. -- Take care, Jonathan --- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Thanks, Paul. https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsa15-04.html How safe? That's relative to YOUR browsing habits and computer knowledge. I am not the least bit concerned about my machines. The small kids next door probably already have their computers infected. A good point, but still, technically speaking, all versions of flash (and newer versions of the java plugin) have some nasty new 0-days because of that stupid italian ``hacking team'' that recently themselves got hacked. Still, with good browsing habits and a bit of common sense, most power users should be fine. In this context, the Italian Hacking Job was a good thing. The Italians were already using the exploit and now everybody is aware of it. I read just now that the count of flaws in Flash found so far this month is up to 38. Finally people are thinking of killing the beast. Was the message really Shockwave Flash is venerable. Use with caution? That would imply it was simply complaining about an older version. Has anyone ever called Flash venerable?
