Why does the partial update fail? This is the third time in a row that I
have had to endure the very slow servers and download the full update.
Why
is this?

I'm not going to further update SM if I have to do these big, slow full
updates.


Updated very quickly and easily here using Windows 7 and about 7Meg
download speed.  I also live on a small island off the West coast of
Scotland so I am a wee bit remote.

I'm in the middle of the Pacific ocean and have 15/1 plan but Mozilla has
extremely slow servers....always has. I get about 240KB/sec on download.

Just updated here. Download took four seconds, install took seven seconds, plus the time it took me to answer the Windows nag and say "yes, go ahead and install."

As an experiment, I also went to the SeaMonkey website and downloaded the full version of "SeaMonkey Setup 2.13.1.exe," declared to be 16 MB, but the download manager claimed it was 19.1 MB. When it completed, the download manager reported 19.3 MB, but the Windows property sheet reported 19.2 MB (20,221,996 bytes). At any rate, this process took the same four seconds as the other one.

So I don't think the SM servers are the issue for you. I can't have received it quickly if they are running slowly. There must be something else going on.

P.S. My Norton didn't alert on any of the files I received or installed.
