I don't think I can do that removal. I'm a beginner when it comes to tech stuff like that. Any problem if I leave the IE extention tab alone? I am going to remove Sea Monkey and go back to IE for my browser. I'm having a problem with vertual memory mimimum and I want to clear everything out and just leave IE for browser.

This is a little confusing. Here you say, "I'm having a problem with vertual memory mimimum".
On 24 Sep, 3:30 pm, you said the same thing in an opening post.
On 04 Oct, 6:03 am, you said "Vertual memory loss is not my problem."
Repeating from a previous response :
- Do you have these problems if you run in 'Safe' mode, if it is available?
- What are your Windows settings: Start > Control Panel > System > Advanced > Performance - Settings > Advanced > Virtual Memory - Change ?
If you need help in trying these suggestions we'll be happy to go into more detail. If the extention is in fact a problem then it would be helpful to the developer to have some definitive diagnostics feedback to be able to fix it. But if there is a Windows setting problem then it likely will rear up again in some other environment.

Settings are recommendaded 370mb
current 372mb
mimimum allowed 2mb
I'm also confused. I think it's one thing and then I think it's something else.

 It's easy. You only need to install the Extension Manager from the site I linked to, and restart SeaMonkey
When SeaMonkey is reopened, go to the Tools menu, and select Extension Manager from the list.
With the Extension Manager window open, highlight the entry for IE Tab, and click Uninstall.
Next time you start SeaMonkey, IE Tab will have been completely removed.

For security reasons, it is not recommended to use Internet Explorer as your primary browser.
Microsoft has a very poor reputation for leaving security vulnerabilities unpatched in IE.
If you're concerned about SeaMonkey using too much memory, there are some alternatives:
K-Meleon ... lightweight browser for Windows built upon the Mozilla Gecko engine
Opera ... Not Gecko based, but still a very good alternative to Internet Explorer.

SeaMonkey = Swiss Army Knife: It's versatile, reliable, and contains useful tools.
Windows Internet Explorer = Old Swiss Cheese: Full of holes, and it stinks! |

I'm currently on SP2, but perhaps a couple of years ago when I was on SP1, from somewhere I got the hint that the Virtual Memory size could be be bumped up appreciably. Note also that I am on Firefox, not Seamonkey, although I would surmise that the differences shouldn't be critical.
My current settings, unchanged from 'then':
Drive: C:
Space available: 15217 MB
Custom size
- Initial size (MB) 756
- Maximum size (MB) 1512
Total paging file size for all drives
- Minimum allowed: 2 MB
- Recommended: 717 MB
- Currently allocated: 756 MB
Are you constrained (running out of room) on your paging (C:?) drive? Try setting a custom size that is perhaps double your present values. The value you report is presumably the normal running value, not the numbers that you would see during the stress situation. (The maximum can safely be set quite high as it wouldn't be used unless really really needed.)

I know I have confused people with all my posts but my 81 year old body is a little slow on some things. I did increase the settings which didn't seem to make any difference. Since then I removed Sea Monkey 1.0.3. and installed Sea Monkey 1.0.5. My computer is back up to speed. SM 1.0.5. is supposed to be more secure and much more stable. So Far so good. I hope it proves to be the answer. Thanks for the reply PaulD
