I suspect these are tracking devices that are slowing things down, is
there anyway to disable them?
Have you considered the AdBlock Plus extension at
<http://adblockplus.org/en/>?
I tried to install it is not working as advertised. Could it be due to
this? (from Adblock website)
Installation in SeaMonkey
"Unfortunately, in SeaMonkey 1.1 and below it is impossible to install
Adblock Plus in the user profile. Adblock Plus will need to be installed
in the application directory. This has the consequence that Adblock Plus
needs to be reinstalled after each SeaMonkey update. Also, usually only
privileged users can install to application directory (on Unix systems
this is root)."
Also I checked my hosts file sys32/drivers/etc/hosts
and it already lists the errant sites! (which means they should be
already blocked!)
Thanks for any further ideas.
