I do not have NoScript. As I indicated before, I do not see this problem. Why don't you try a test after using Add-ons Manager to disable NoScript? After the test, you can then use Add-ons Manager to enable NoScript without having to re-install it. Alternatively, terminate SeaMonkey and then re-launch in safe mode. See if the problem still exists. In safe mode, all extensions and themes are disabled (except for a default theme); but none of your plugins (including Adobe Reader's nppdf32.dll) are affected. If you don't see the problem in safe mode, then the problem is likely caused by an extension. -- David E.
