   I have used Seamonkey quite a bit and Firefox a little since installing the   
   new releases on 4/16.    
   Neither has crashed if you don't count a couple of experiments with the Flash   
   plugin when both    
   browsers froze and required a reboot. CAD popup didn't come up; but if I held   
   CAD down for about ten    
   seconds the system rebooted. The 2/10 Seamonkey crashed about every 30 minutes   
   -- tremendous    
   improvement.   
      
   Also printing works much better than in the 2/10 release, although the print   
   preview work around is    
   still necessary from mail and newsgroup windows and the scroll bar in the   
   preview window is still    
   huge. With the 2/10 release, I found it necessary to print to file and copy   
   the resulting .ps or    
   .pcl file to LPTx. With the 4/15 version direct printing from the preview   
   works. The preview window    
   is not usually necessary when printing from web sites. One strange thing is   
   that after the preview    
   window comes up showing how the page(s) will look, when I click on print and   
   the printer dialog    
   appears, the preview display sometimes changes to look more like the the   
   original window.   
      
   Thanks once again for your great work.
