Firefox users upgrading to 7.0.x have reported the following problems.
Some of which may or may not affect SeaMonkey 2.4.x:
* Broken extensions:
o Yahoo Toolbar is a big one, apparently bookmarks stored there are
wiped out entirely. Lots of complaints of dataloss here. (May also be
bug 680802)
o One or two people saying noscript went missing (that's bug 680802).
o Lots of complaints about Norton toolbar -- Users have to update
via Norton first before updating Firefox.
o Kaspersky doesn't work at all.
o Java console also making a reappearance.
o 1Password - From kev "1Password switched to a full JS
implementation a while back. Users have been reluctant (from what I
understand) to upgrade because there's some functionality loss."
o Some banking extension (maybe trusteer)
o Roboform (also lots of complaints)
* Spike in people saying they lost bookmarks/favorites -- may be Yahoo
toolbar. I know people about two weeks ago were saying that we "forced
Yahoo on them" so I'm not sure what's going on and Yahoo may have eaten
the bookmarks. Or it can be the usual upgrade = profile loss.
* Firefox not responding randomly. (May be bug 686025 but triggered by
the update or some users are saying that they are updating directly from
5 because of this problem but it's back.)
* Lost sessions (but we see this with almost every update) -- may be
worse this time but hard to say.
* A few complaints about the missing http (not a lot... but some
comments that it broke intranet pages and general whining)
* Maybe something about Yahoo mail layouts being screwed up (can't
reproduce here.)
-------------------------------------------------------------
I think someone in the Mozillazine support forum reported a problem with
Yahoo mail layouts but nobody else in that thread could reproduce the
problem.

Guard us from the she-wolf and the wolf, and guard us from the thief,
