That message often means that the Web server is sniffing your user agent (UA) string incorrectly, sniffing for "Firefox" and not for "Gecko". There are a few Web sites where the sniffing breaks when both "Firefox" and "SeaMonkey" are present in the UA string. In this case, the "Advertise Firefox compatibility" feature in SeaMonkey is worthless. If you have PrefBar installed, try setting your UA string to spoof Firefox without any mention of SeaMonkey. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
