happened, SeaMonkey's check of add-ins for compatibility stalled. After
five minutes of spinning, I clicked "Cancel" and the installer terminated.
The file that was flagged by NIS was

I launched SeaMonkey, which reported its version as 2.24, but did not
automatically take me to the release notes (well, actually, it tried,
but I just got the busy cursor; it never displayed the page). In fact, I
was unable to browse to any web page, which means I cannot download the
installer and reinstall manually.
I checked my add-ons, and found the "Extensions" were intact, but the
"Plugins" panel was blank (about 10 add-ons had vanished). When I asked
SM to check compatibility, I got the same result as with the browser --
unable to browse to any page, including the plugin check.
I am unable to download mail (Ctrl-D produces no response).
I will download the full installer on another computer, move it here,
uninstall and reinstall and see if that helps.
I used to have this problem with SM and Norton. I now wait a few days
for Norton to get its act together -- haven't had a problem since.
Also, I check this group before installation, to make sure there aren't
any other "show-stoppers" that I need to know about, so I don't do
something that I don't want to do.
