This also happens when I start SM in safemode. I am running Windows 7

Define "settings are correct". What did you enter?

In my preferences, the startup preference is for the browser to open the
group of tabs defined as the home page. If I click the Home button on
the toolbar these are all opened normally. But starting a new browser,
or opening a link from within another program, does not open that link,
or the home page tabs. I also noticed just now, not sure if this has
anything to do with it, that the text in the status bar showing what's
under a link I mouse over has disappeared. I do still see it in the mail
and news window, though. Just not in the browser.

Note that there is a pref for opening new windows/tabs as well.

What happens btw if you try to open a local file (by double-clicking the
file) in SeaMonkey when SeaMonkey is already running?

A new window opens with one blank tab.
I think this happens when I open a new window, regardless of whether
it's a file on my computer or the home page. Opening a new window gives
the same result, even when the option in preferences is to open the home
page, or even something else. The preference is disregarded. Opening a
new tab works correctly.
I also see that I can no longer drag and drop from the address bar to
create a link on my desktop.

Oops. After running checkdisk on the disk containing the executables for SM the problems went away... Not sure why this cleared things up, since it started happening after the update, but I tried it anyway and this seems to have cleared things up. I believe the problem to be in the executables, because I run it both when I boot into XP and when I boot into win 7. I use different profiles on different drives - the exe files are on F, the 7 profile is on C, and the XP profile is on D. Both gave the problem, and it also happened when I ran SM in safe mode. So far I have tried after the cleanup only in 7, but it seems OK again.
