Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:6.0) Gecko/20110820 SeaMonkey/2.3.1 You say it's a bug. Do you have the bug number? I've been doing those operations with SeaMonkey for years without any problems. I just now retested. I dragged an icon to my desktop and terminated SeaMonkey. I double-clicked on the icon; SeaMonkey opened to the indicated Web page. I dragged an icon to a folder without crashing anything. After terminating SeaMonkey, double-clicking on the icon shortcut again gave me the appropriate Web page. (The folder has prior shortcuts to 26 Web pages, one from 2007.) All this also works if I don't terminate SeaMonkey. -- David E.
