I depend very much on PrefBar and recommend everyone use it. However, its handling of Flash -- disabling and enabling Flash by diddling with the Flash plugin -- always seems problematical. I use FlashBlock from <http://flashblock.mozdev.org/>. I also created a PrefBar checkbox to enable and disable FlashBlock. I know that Manuel Reimer (PrefBar developer) is not happy with this, but I recommend it as much superior over the capability inherent solely in PrefBar. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/> Go to Mozdev at <http://www.mozdev.org/> for quick access to extensions for Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, and other Mozilla-related applications. You can access Mozdev much more quickly than you can Mozilla Add-Ons. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
