I've read all this bad stuff about 2.10 and I still have 2.7 on my host XP Pro machine so I was afraid to install it. I decided to install it a few hours ago on a virtual machine on XP Pro instead of the host machine. It works great so far. I just watched over an hour of tiger movies at youtube with no problems. I installed the extensions I have on 2.7 and they work fine. I did not have SM on this guest machine at all so this was a clean install of 2.10 not an upgrade on top of an earlier version. That might have something to do with it working so well. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
