To test if SeaMonkey is your default browser: - Under notepad create a file containing: html body This is a very short html page /body /html - Save this file with the name: shortest.htm into (per example) the directory C:/ALLDATA/ - Go under windows explorer, find this file and double-click on it. Then, if SeaMonkey start showing This is a very short html page BINGO ! SeaMonkey is your default browser. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

You really need to give more information: What is your platform (e.g., PC, Mac, IPad) What is your operating system, including version? What version of SeaMonkey are you using? -- David E.

Besides the addtional information requested in my other reply, I need to understand more clearly your problem: Are you expecting SeaMonkey to launch as soon as you establish a connection to the Internet? If so, that will NOT happen. I do not know of any browser that automatically launches merely because an Internet connection exists. Indeed, I often use SeaMonkey without any Internet connection, to view changes to my Web site before I upload the HTML files. -- David E. Ross The Crimea is Putin's Sudetenland.

How are you /doing/ that? Back in my dial-up days, I seem to remember launching Netscape 4.7 and then IT told the modem to dial-up. Not vice versa.
