I have been having major problems with SM on my Windows 7 Professional
system when the program automatically updated from version 2.29 to 2.30
about a week ago.
Both Acrobat Reader and Shockwave Flash now malfunction and crash most
of the time - most notably in YouTube and Facebook - and the plugins do
not reload. I have installed the latest version plugins for Acrobat
Reader and Shockwave Flash, so the false reminders to upgrade the
plugins is useless.
I also noticed that since the SM upgrade my mouse and browser navigation
functions have become dramatically slower and/or behaving erratically.
Web pages sometimes take a long time to load, if ever, they freeze up
and sometimes even disappear after they've loaded. I have done repeated
scans for malware and viruses with no evidence of such interventions.
I uninstalled SM 2.30 and reinstalled 2.29 a short while ago and it
seems that all the problems I have just described have suddently
disappeared.
Is there a way to turn off automatic updates in Seamonkey?
Thanks,
Marisa
Yes, not that I recommend turning off auto-updates.
Go to Edit->Preferences->Advanced->Software Installation and, in the
SeaMonkey section, de-select "Automatically check for updates" and/or
de-select Automatically download and install the updates.
