The issue here is that SM versions prior to version 2 were not ready for the User Account Control setup introduced with Windows Vista (and still present with Windows 7). I'd first try to make IE the default browser, then some other browser (e.g. Opera), then try making SM the default. If that still doesn't work I'd try to start SM with admin rights once. You can also try the "Set your default programs" method or anything else described on the following page: <http://kb.mozillazine.org/Default_browser> In any case these are suggestions I cannot check myself since I'm using SM 2 on WinXP (and Linux, like now). HTH Jens P.S.: I'm a bit surprised to see you on the other side of support but I guess it'll happen to all of us eventually. ;-) -- Jens Hatlak <http://jens.hatlak.de/> SeaMonkey Trunk Tracker <http://smtt.blogspot.com/> _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
