The SeaMonkey Project

The SeaMonkey Project

I began the browser war about a week ago. I tried several suggestions. Just as I began to think MSIExplorer was still the best option, I loaded up the Mozilla Suite. That changed my mind. It was nearly perfect. I could even spellcheck everything without opening up another program. Just clicking the link to the Mozilla Composer gave me all I needed to make sure I was typo free. Then I set it up for email, though I never did get that to work fully. Still, it was enough to let me send email from my Gmail account without actually going to that site and logging in. Saved me a lot of bother. Things were fine. I'm still very pleased with the Mozilla Suite.

But, it niggled at me that there was an untried update. That SeaMonkey which is still in the testing stage and likely buggy as a vat of swamp water. But, I had to try it. So far it does have bugs. It does odd things and the Google toolbar was fussy to load and get working. It seems to be doing ok now though. At least I can recognize the icons again. The only thing still odd are a couple of icons from the browser itself. Seems it doesn't like the 'print' and 'stop' buttons/ icons now that I loaded the OhCanada theme. Tough. That little monkey will just have to grow out of it. I think it will be just as good as the Mozilla Suite, in time.

So, that's where I am. If you have some time for a browser war yourself let me know how it goes and which ones you try out. I deleted all of mine but for SeaMonkey, the Mozilla Suite and old reliable MSIExplorer.
