Perhaps the reason is that, in SeaMonkey, Firefox, and Thunderbird, I use very few extensions and add-ons. I upgrade all three applications regularly as well. No upgrades have ever destroyed my profiles. Can we blame it on the extensions and add-ons? I also use Opera (to browse only at this time but have used its mail and news clients in the past) and yes, it too is an excellent product. -- -bts -This space for rent, but the price is high _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
