The "new tab" button sometimes doesn't appear until I mouse over it for a few versions now in Win7. I've also had issues with some themes not appearing. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: Updateing Plugins
Mozilla never really got any of that part of the Addons Manager working correctly in Firefox, so SeaMonkey has the same weirdness. Mozilla is trying to get away from recommending Plugins so I suspect in the near future some of that stuff will be ripped out. If you want a specific Plugin, you just need to go to it's official website and install it... you cannot install Plugins through Firefox/SeaMonkey anyway... they have to be installed at the OS level. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: Previously typed addresses only doesn't work
Firefox developers changed the mechanism for how this works and the SeaMonkey devs have not had a change to update the UI.

One wonders why they don't separate out the newer versions, maybe they only list the most popular two individually. There are several picklists and sliders on the right where you can change how many versions are shown for what time period, etc. Phil Thanks for that, Phil, I hadn't noticed that. I set the Top N to 10 and ver 2.33 was still not showing ... bit of a worry!! :-( 2.33 shows up when you set Top N to 15. When you do, you see that it's been more active than any other individual version for about the last week. Probably not quite more active than all other versions put together, but it doesn't look far off. Hence my doubts as to how the rankings for the Top N are calculated! Mark. IF the Top picks are cumulative then 2.33 will not be top because it hasn't been out long enough, and 2.26 will probably remain at the top because it was the stalled version, lasting for 3 entire release periods when 2.27 and 2.28 were skipped. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: No WebGL?
WebGL support is extremely spotty in Firefox. It's blocked on almost all XP systems, and there are vast lists of GPU's it's blocked on. Basically unless you are running the latest-and-greatest gaming system you shouldn't expect it to work. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: SeaMonkey more secure than Firefox
What a ridiculous steaming pile of garbage. The entire premise upon which this study and it's conclusions are based is 100% backwards. Most software companies do not publicly report security vulnerabilities until they are fixed and that fix is released. Also, a great many of the vulnerabilities in Firefox are discovered by Firefox developers and community members and patched before anyone on the outside even knows about them. And one path of inquiry into a vulnerability will often lead to the discovery of other related possible vulnerabilities which also end up fixed. There's even cases of vulnerabilities created by new code in development builds that is fixed long before the code that created the hole appears in a release version. Security contests like PWN-2-OWN make all discovered vulnerabilities known to the software developers before results of the contest are published, giving firms a chance to fix them... note that IE scores on PWN-2-OWN are sometimes redacted for these reasons. So instead of high numbers of published vulnerabilities representing unsecure software, it generally represents the exact opposite... active and aggressive security testing and fixing. So what's the least secure setup? Anything that hasn't been updated. Especially if it's Windows running IE and Java. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: Find box invoked without being requested
Yes, it's an accessibility feature called Type Ahead Find which is enabled by default in SeaMonkey.

Re: updating or uninstalling flash plug-in?
Mozilla's plugin-check page is updated manually and is *never* up-to-date. In fact, it generally considers many ancient versions of plugins to be current and occasionally it will even say that brand new versions are out-of-date. The plan was to convince the various plugins developers to adopt a system of notifications that all browsers could use to keep their plugins up-to-date. This likely was never considered because Google's answer was to simply bundle important plugins into Chrome, thus circumventing the whole mess. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: Ghostery 5.3.1 no longer supports SeaMonkey until new code
One of the improvements in Australis is a new API for adding buttons to toolbars. There is talk of porting this code over to SeaMonkey. But it seems rather obnoxious for an extension developer to stop supporting the standard methods for toolbar buttons which have worked since the olden days, and STILL works in Firefox. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

To my knowledge, most of the alternative adblockers are really just copies of AdBlock Plus, built from the same exact source with one two differences. And at least one of them was distributing spyware. You can use a hosts file at the OS level to block URLs known to distribute ads. It's not 100% the same as adblock, but there is no browser overhead to use it. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: x in tabs
Hi guys, I am the developer of Sea Fox. I knew some of you probably wouldn't like everything that Sea Fox does, so I've gotten permission from CatTheif to resurrect SeaTab X. In the next few days SeaTab-X-2 should appear here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/seatab-x-2/ It is not exactly like the last version of SeaTab X, and it does require that you change the browser.tabs.closeButtons setting to work the way you expect it to.
