Re: Stopping shockwave?
Interviewed by CNN on 03/02/2014 08:04, Peter told the world: How can SM2.17.1 be stopped from trying to run shockwave? Also, what _is_ shockwave? Shockwave is a plugin from Adobe. You can prevent it from running by: a) Disabling it in the Add-Ons Manager, or b) Uninstalling it entirely from your computer Note that due to some marketing-oriented decisions took years ago by Macromedia (now part of Adobe), there are actually two different products that may identify themselves as Shockwave. The most common of them is Flash, which is listed on the Add-Ons Manager as Shockwave Flash. The other one is Shockwave Player. They are both Adobe products, but actually do different things. Note also that it may be possible to set up click to play behavior in Seamonkey, in which plugins aren't loaded automatically. But I can't recall offhand if this was already available in SM 2.17, which is about six versions out of date. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

problem with email listing
i don't know what is going on. when i log onto my email the following is happening or not happening. when previously i would click on an email to read same, the inbox folder would show a decrease in the number to be read and the would show a change in how it is listed. as i read each one, the inbox number decreased an the email listing changed shading. i now do not get this. all the email lists remain the same bolder type an when i read thm the the inbox listing never decreases. i am using win 7 premium home ed. this problem started after i shut down the system. when tuned on the next day the problem appeared and i can find no reason for it. i reinstalled the latest ver but the problem remained. i then uninstalled the pgm. shut down and rebooted. i then removed all references in the registry, and shut down. upon rebooting i scanned for any ref to seamonkey and found none.again rebooted. got on seamonkeuy site and downloaded the latest program. installed same and guess what the problem was still there. what in hell is happening or not happening here. use seamonkey as primary browser and email client.also have thunderbird running as separate pgm but there is no problems.so WHAT IS GOING ON MAY I ASK ? would appreciate your help with this and resolving problem. thanx in advance roger rego...@comcast.net 724-709-8716PS this is driving me crazy as i have no idea on what is going on or how it got screwed up.

Just tried exactly as you said, here in the NG, with the current

I should have added that the w lc key toggles the eye on and off for
me, the i key lc or uc and uc W have no effect. since I rarely use

confused, the Watch Thread option is under Message on the menu bar not

Don't confuse Shift-w with an uppercase W. In the world of key-press
parsing, Shift-w is not key-code equivalent to an uppercase W. If you
turn on caps lock, I think you'll find that pressing w works just fine.
Thank you Trane, I learned something new today. For an old guy my age
that really is an accomplishment.
