Try excluding the SeaMonkey profile folder from the real-time protection
of your anti-virus program.
It appears that SM opens a heck of a lot of individual files at startup,
and at various times during use, and some anti-virus programs with
real-time protection can cause long freezes while all the files are checked.
I know this then becomes a security issue, but it's either that or
ceasing to run SeaMonkey.
SeaMonkey never used to play this badly, so I'm hopeful that someone
someday will find the problem and fix it.
