Thanks FRG,
At the moment I'm running 64 bit 2.49.3 (Build identifier: 20180321130026).
Would the 2.49.5 version on the WG9s be the best update, considering
stability etc.?

If you refer to https://www.m64.info/index.php/seamonkey-64-bit-download
then to everyone: Stop promoting or even mentioning this site as an
alternative. They are not in any way associated with the SeaMonkey
project. Previously they just copied Adrians builds without giving
credit. Now they just host completely broken alpha comm-central
nightly builds from
https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-central-trunk/
You might even pick up a trojan any day from the look of the site.
Providing Windows x64 builds is tracked in:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482143
For 2.49.x it will not happen on the current infrastucture. We are
building a new one outside of mozilla space but this still takes some
time.
If you want x64 takes Bills 2.49.x or 2.53 builds:
http://www.wg9s.com/comm-esr/
2.53 still has some problems but shapes up nicely. It has about 260
backported patches applied to the latest Fx 56 and SeaMonkey 2.53
sources but is not completely up to date wrt security. Consider it
beta. 2.57 will be the next version after the last 2.49 but still
months away. 2.57 will be provided in offical x64 versions for Linux
and Windows (or at least that is the plan<g>).

release? They're a bit ahead but not making much progress and the
releases are betas and alphas by their functioning, buggy, and really
unstable in general, so this stable releases maybe will help them in
turn, meanwhile we get good stable 64-bit versions that I'd prefer to
use, the 4 GB RAM limitation causes the Browser to crash, I think,
specially when many flash video tabs are open, the internal flash
player of SeaMonkey sucks, laggy, and slow, and eventually makes
SeaMonkey crash to be honest, so I use Adobe Flash Player, much
better, but eventually crashes too.

Greetings,

2.49.3!

New in SeaMonkey 2.49.3 section of the Release Notes [2], which also
contain a list of known issues and answers to frequently asked
questions. For a more general overview of the SeaMonkey project (and

It's been a very difficult release (but it still can't compare with
2.46... )
