New
Release: SeaMonkey 1.1.8
So,
tell me, are you ready for yet another brand new update? Yesterday,
I brought you Firefox and today, I'm bringing you SeaMonkey! If you
use the all-in-one Internet suite of SeaMonkey pretty regularly, you
may already know about this, but for those of you who haven't heard
the news, allow me to fill you in. On February 7, 2008, SeaMonkey
1.1.8 was released to the public and it is now available for
download. So, if you haven't taken advantage of this update yet, you
can read a little more about it here and then get it for yourself. Let's
go!
I know
most of you are probably wondering why a new update was needed in the
first place, right? Well, the SeaMonkey team was able to find and fix
several security vulnerabilities and a few other smaller problems that
have been lurking around in previous versions. In fact, a lot of the
issues go hand in hand with what Firefox updated last week as well.
I found a list of seven major problems, which dealt with everything
from stylesheet issues to the mishandling of plain text files to Web
browsing history concerns to system crashes and so on. If you want to
see the entire list of bugs that were fixed, you can do so right here.
Now,
if you haven't downloaded v1.1.8 yet, you should get to it! The SeaMonkey
team is urging everyone to start using the new version as soon as possible.
All of the older versions suffer from numerous security vulnerabilities
and you need to protect yourself. This new release is as easy to use
as any other version and it comes with new features you just can't pass
up. To download SeaMonkey 1.1.8, just visit this Web
site and click on the operating system you use. Then just follow
the install instructions and you'll be all set. Here's to a brand new
SeaMonkey you just can't live without. Oh yeah!
