Ok then, so there is nothing wrong with SeaMonkey. It's only slow if you are running other processor-intensive apps at the same time. You didn't give those extra vital details, and still didn't state things like how much ram you have. > But in no case do I see a splash screen. Neither does mine, and if it did I'd turn it off for wasting resources. You could always file a request for feature, but make sure you ask that it be an option. -- -bts -Four wheels carry the body; two wheels move the soul _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
