Look at this logically. If you don't subscribe to any RSS feeds there won't be any for SeaMonkey to freeze on.

Freezing in SM2
Using XP, I have for some time been plagued by freezes in SM1. The application becomes unresponsive, and all the SM windows in Task Manager show Not responding. After a while (30 seconds perhaps) it comes back to life. But now I am saying the same thing in SM2 (on a different XP machine). It may be related to mail/news, because I have not seen it happen when I have only browser windows open. Does anybody else see this? -- David Wilkinson ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I thought SM2 was supposed to have better isolation between different pages/features, so that problems with one page/feature would not disable the whole application. Anyway, this is not acceptable.

In fact, I had been attributing the problem to my non standard profile setup, where the mail/news/rss data is stored on an external drive. Do you have your account set to poll the servers for new messages at the same time? If so, that may be the cause.

Re: Freezing in SM2
I am seeing something similar.Can't figute out what is causing it. It seems to be related to getting mail, but I have all of my mail accounts set to get mail only when asked.

Does anybody else see this? Currently, I have SeaMonkey 1.1.18. I did a custom install without mail-news. I do not bother with RSS. I see the freeze whenever a page contains JavaScript that causes additional scripts to download and then execute. I especially see it when such a chain of scripts involves a final display that is a PDF document in my browser window. but I also occasionally see it when the chain of scripts does not involve PDF. Because of this, I used the PrefBar extension to create a JavaScript checkbox. Unchecking the checkbox disables JavaScript. Now, when I visit a Web site where I've seen this freeze in the past, I uncheck. Sometimes I have to be alert to check the checkbox when navigating through such a site to a page that is just plain broken without JavaScript. RSS doesn't exist in Mac version of SM 1.1.8 never has. you could add an extension but didn't like it. Even in FF I don't use it. -- Phillip M.
