Hmmmm. There's a series of manipulations on certains webpages that always
seem to bring Firefox down (example: hitting the back button on a search
results page on youtube.com). I just tried the same with Seamonkey, and
it doesn't crash. Add this to the fact that over the last months,
Thunderbird mysteriously "lost" some of my messages, I'm seriously
considering giving up the highly acclaimed wonder duo Firefox/Thunderbird
in favour of Seamonkey/Mozilla Mail or maybe Sylpheed Claws. I need
applications for a rock-solid production desktop, and behaviour like this
is no good.

I'm curious about your opinion. Please, no troll intended.
