On XP Pro, that stupid Flash plugin container tried to start as Sea Monkey
2.21 was starting! It should not start unless I decide to start Flash Player
which is controlled by a toggle switch and can't start until I give
permission. Plus, none of the tabs that were loading have any Flash Player
video on them and the Proxomitron blocks all ads that might use Flash.  So,
I told Process Guard to deny Flash Plugin container from running. I've never
had a problem doing that in the past but I guess 2.21 won't allow one to
control Flash Player as when I did that Sea Monkey froze and then crashed.

I tried starting it in Safe Mode and same thing, it is not allowed to load
Flash Plugin container so it freezes and crashes.  I thought Safe Mode
disabled plugins? Evidently not...so what is the purpose of Safe Mode?

I updated Flash Player recently and for some stupid reason that activates it
on Fx and SeaMonkey disregarding my plugin settings where I had it disabled.
If I disable it then SeaMonkey should not crash because Flash plugin
container two processes won't try to load.  So, if I can start SeaMonkey
offline would that work so I could disable Flash plugin?

(The real problem is that no browser should automatically grab a plugin. I
remember when they did not and they still should not do that).




On openSUSE 12.3 Linux opening SeaMonkey to the default home page <http://www.seamonkey-project.org/start/> does not start the plugin container.

Setting "plugins.click_to_play" to true and setting all plugins to "Ask to Activate", did not start the plugin container when I went to <http://www.cbsnews.com/video/>.

Clicking "Activate Adobe Flash" in the blank video window did start the plugin container.

You do still have control.
