Is there a way to prevent SM from reloading page after hang

Post by Bob Fam1 »

Is there any way to prevent SM from reloading the page after a hangup. I get lockups on some of my political e-mails where they send you to a phony site. When SM reloads it still goes back to the same site. If I restart SM after the lockup the second time it gives me the option of starting a new session. I'd like to start a new session after the first crash. Thanks. Bob.

In about:config, see what these might do for you?

browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes
browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash

(I'm not totally sure what they do, but) maybe setting the latter to 'false' might do it?


(As a test, create a new Profile. Set SeaMonkey to restore its session on start up. Set that Pref to 'false'. Visit your crash happy site. Crash.

What happens on restart?)
Fire 750, bring back 250.
