Walter, I really am not sure I understand what have happened here. Do you mean ALL sites keep asking you for passwords? Even the ones where you DIDN'T have an account? That's a very odd symptom. I mean, yeah, you can log on to Google, but it usually doesn't prompt you for a password right at the bat, unless you are accessing one of the services (like Gmail) that don't work without an account. Let's try to isolate it -- is it a profile corruption issue, an add-in issue or a problem in Seamonkey itself? 1. Try running Seamonkey in Safe Mode. If the problem disappears, it's likely to be an add-on issue. Try re-enabling your add-ons one at a time until you find the culprit. 2. Try creating a new, blank profile. If you can browser with no problems, then it's a profile corruption issue. It's possible to rescue most of your data from the old profile, but it takes a bit of work. 3. Maybe the Seamonkey program files got themselves corrupted. Uninstall SM, check that the c:\program files (x86)\Seamonkey got deleted, then reinstall Seamonkey. > Equipment: HP desktop, Pavilion NY705AA-ABA p6204y, Windows 7, Home > Premium, all additions up to date. Sea Monkey 2.8, Avast free, Zone > Alarm free, Windows Defender-up to date. Yes, that's an impressive set of protective software. But even the best antivirus/antimalware products fail now and then. The possibility of a malware infection must not be discarded. I might mention here in passing that even Microsoft suggests disabling Windows Defender if you have another program with similar features (like Avast), to avoid the performance penalty. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
