I've set Chrome as my system default, but Seamonkey still shows and uses Seamonkey's browser.
How do I get it to use Chrome when I click links in Seamonkey mail? Please note that I've
been using Seamonkey for decades - this is not a newbie's uninformed question.
flyguy, when you think about it, SeaMonkey is just one program, so when in the "Mail & News"
screen, you click on a link another part of the one program starts up to display that screen!!
However, there used to be a preference which you could change so that, when you clicked a link
in the "Mail & News" screen, the link would show in your chosen Browser.
Unfortunately, I think that preference has been removed/disabled. ;-(
But, that raises the question, flyguy .... If the email part of SeaMonkey is based on
Thunderbird and you want to use Chrome as your browser, why are you sticking with SeaMonkey and
not switching to Thunderbird for your email??
I'm happy with SM email, so I'm avoiding the hassle of setting up a new email program. If it
causes me problems in the future, I'll take a look at Thunderbird. So far, no problems, unlike
the SM browser, which has had increasing problems with sites over the last couple of years that
Chrome handles well. My wife hates SM with Facebook, like Chrome with Facebook, and that's what
began our transition to Chrome. Chrome also seems to work easier and smoother; eg, auto updates.
