Re: Opening a link from another application will result in empty new window

When I open a link from another application, I will get a new and
completely empty window, instead of a new tab with the web page.

I looked in the browser preferences, and everything seems to be ok.

What can cause this problem?
 2.53a1 looks like an alpha 'coz the 'a1', there are 3 2.54a1 and 
2.55a1 the newer the version the crappier the build, The one that has 
minor bugs and is good for some people is 2.51, but the SM databases are 
changed drastically from 2.53a1 and onward so your profile and bookmark 
might not be readable on 2.51 anymore, maybe you could export your 
bookmarks as a JSON and HTML, also save prefs.js and import the 
bookmarks and replace prefs.js on a 2.51 profile.


I wonder why they can just build a 2.48 64-bit SM shen the official 
stable is 2.48 32-bit?

It stops people from being incredulous and asking you why you're a luddite. :-)

64bit has several disadvantages I can think of:
1-poorly suited to limited RAM environments (1GB or less)
2-generally more to download at updates time
3-more storage space consumed
4-needs additional software to enable running legacy apps unavailable for 64bit
5-reduces developer pool required to keep perfectly good old hardware functional
6-causes support for important apps to die (e.g. Firefox post-ESR requires Rust)

You assume that 1 GB RAM old system is suited for today's software, old 
machines should use up to a certain level of new software, there will be 
a point where code and will not be compatible with old PCs, hardware 
parts will ran out and other disadvantages, but I'm all for using things 
efficiently, up to the point  they can't be maintained or repaired but 
that has specific requirement you must watch, and is not the fault of 
64-bit development, which is the inevitable future of code; key word 
future, new better hardware, so 64-bit development doesn't have to 
comply with old hardware at all, if you have such an old hardware, you 
should use everything 32-bit, and you still have a good run ahead, you 
can get 32-bit Win8.1 which is better and more efficient than Win7 and 
I'd really try to upgrade to 2 GB RAM at least, on DDR2 or older RAM, 
you can still find the part I think, it's important to try to keep up 
and not just blame all on new software development that are simply 
generationally incompatible with old hardware

Good to know but for the frequency, as I pointed out, looks an abandoned 
project. The suggested build 2.53a1 I already tried, won't save 
previously visited pages, and looks like is an alpha for the 'a1' and 
http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-central-trunk/ 
are the same as offered as M64.info, tested the 3 .a1 and the worse is 
the 2.55a1, the good stable 1 with minor glitches was 2.51, but I'm 
taking no chances, I'm going with the more reliable 32-bit releases, 4 
months and no fixes, just bad 3 releases doesn't tells you, you're 
serious about it. Maybe you should release the same versions as 32-bit 
but on 64-bit, maybe that way the development would be smoother and easy 
to debug and more often updates than jumping several versions ahead and 
see them perform substandard

I had that same thing crop up in mozilla.general a short while back with 
a small number of persistent underlines.


I tried deleting the msf file and then restarting Seamonkey.  Now the

I finally cleared the problem by unsubscribing and then re-subscribing

This is an old problem (reported in 2009) in Thunderbird, apparently in
a component that is also part of SeaMonkey's MailNews.  See bug #520582
