Are you sure there is no virus on your machine? Did you run a registry cleaner after uninstalling SM? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Thanks Stan Stan, I forget what was suggested in your other thread, but the only thing that I might suggest would be to close SeaMonkey, go make yourself a cup of Tea/Coffee or pour yourself a beer (as the shoe fits), then come back to your computer, give the three finger salute (Ctrl-Alt-Del) and see if SeaMonkey is still listed as running. If so, end task on it, and then try starting SeaMonkey the normal way. It should be noted that if you have SeaMonkey in the Quick-Start section down in the bottom left of your screen, then SM should be listed in your running processes, as a stub of the program is kept running from start-up, but with todays fast computer, the time saving is minimal.
