Hmmm, tough question. Leaving aside for the moment all the myriad reasons why it's inadvisable to use a browser that old -- SM switched to 2.x almost four years old, which is an eternity in Internet terms; the 1.1.19 is a few months newer than that, but it only corrects a few bugs and is an end-of-life version -- the main problem is that 1.x Seamonkey uses a different UI engine (XPFE) than the one used by Firefox and current SM versions (Toolkit). So porting an add-on from Firefox to Seamonkey 1.x was a lot of work, and many developers simply didn't bother, or (even if they initially did bother) eventually stopped supporting Seamonkey. With the changeover to Toolkit in SM 2.0, just about everybody stopped supporting Seamonkey 1.x, period. Which means that current versions of add-ons *won't* work with SM 1.x. Your best bet is looking at old versions, which are almost certainly abandoned by their authors and no longer maintained (kind of like SM 1.x, in fact) -- and therefore not up to handling the latest crop of advertiser tricks. Philip Chee has a number of extensions compatible with older Seamonkey releases on his page at Mozdev; you may find something there. http://xsidebar.mozdev.org/ -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
