You can try blanking these:

browser.safebrowsing.provider.google.lists
browser.safebrowsing.provider.google4.lists
browser.safebrowsing.provider.mozilla.lists
extensions.blocklist.url
I didn't try and wouldn't recommend it. It's just a list update and does nothing bad. per se. You would also need to disable all updates and do the same for all extensions which fetch list updates from servers (your adblocker should do it too). There may be other options which would need to be set too. These are just the ones I know.

There is a thread in the firefox group about firefox connecting to
cloudfront. While looking into that I checked on seamonkey and I see the
same:

tcp        0      0 192.168.1.3:54212

This is a new profile and I have set the home page to blank. These
connections are made when I launch seamonkey before I do anything else.

What are they about? Is it copies from firefox core code?


Sorry, Frank-Rainer, but are you suggesting that, straight out of the box, my SeaMonkey is "phoning home" to these three (and, possible, other) servers every time I connect to the Internet WITHOUT MY PERMISSION??

If so, can you please provide further information ....

1.    How can I stop this "phoning home",

2.    What might I break if I disable this "phoning home", and,

3.    What SM function may break if I disable this function??

(So much of the SPAM I receive seems to originate from amazonaws that I would rather avoid it if I can!!)


Here is one.

SeaMonkey automatically checks for malicious or forged web pages, broken add-ons, and third-party issued SSL certificates.
