SeaMonkey is a free and open source web browser, enhanced newsgroups and e-mail client, IRC chat client and HTML editor, all within one application.
The SeaMonkey project is a collaborative project to produce high-quality releases of code from the application formerly known as "Mozilla Application Suite".
While the main goal of the Mozilla Foundation are the Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird projects, SeaMonkey's group of dedicated volunteers works to guarantee that you have "everything but the kitchen sink" at hand, and stable enough to be used in a business environment.
Here are some key features of "SeaMonkey":
Browser:
· Sync allows you to keep your browsing history, passwords, bookmarks, preferences and tabs in sync across different devices (computers) in a secure way.
· Tabbed browsing gives you a better way to surf the net.
· Session restore brings back all your open windows and tabs after the rare occasion that SeaMonkey crashes.
· Add-ons Management provides almost infinite possibilies to extend your Internet experience.
· Data Manager serves as a central management interface for all kinds of site-specific data, including cookies, permissions (e.g. image blocking), preferences, passwords and form data.
· Lightweight themes (Personas) let you give your SeaMonkey a personal touch through simple theming.
· Feed detection notifies you when web pages offer RSS or Atom feeds, and feed preview lets you view their contents and choose a reader with which to subscribe to those.
· Smart Location Bar enables you to search your visited web pages right when typing in the browser's location bar.
