If I press the wheel down in SeaMonkey over a link, my preferences cause that link to open in a new tab (unless the link is coded in JavaScript). If I press the wheel down in SeaMonkey away from any link, I get a circular icon with a black dot in the center and black triangles above and below that dot. As long as that icon is visible, moving my cursor away from it causes scrolling in the direction of my cursor. The farther my cursor is from the icon, the faster the scrolling. The icon, however, remains static within the window as the window's content moves. To clear the icon and stop this form of scrolling, I merely press the wheel down again, not necessarily near the icon. This works in SeaMonkey, Thunderbird (not in the compose window), Word, Excel, and possibly other applications. In some cases, the icon appears different. In Windows Photo Editor, I have to hold the wheel down for this type of scrolling. This does not work in Notepad or Wordpad. -- David E. Ross I am sticking with SeaMonkey 2.26.1 until saved passwords can be used when autocomplete=off.
