All I get is an empty/blank window :-( So I have to close SeaMonkey and try again. That makes Quick Launch unusable with all SeaMonkey v1.1 builds! This bug happens with SeaMonkey v1.1 (official release) and also with some v1.1 nightlies I tested. There was no such problem in v1.0.7. See screenshots: http://mulder.dummwiedeutsch.de/temp/SeaMonkey_Bug1.jpg http://mulder.dummwiedeutsch.de/temp/SeaMonkey_Bug2.jpg Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run SeaMonkey v1.1 and enable Qucik Launch Icon in options 2. Exit SeaMonkey and make sure Quick Launch is still active 3. Run SeaMonkey from Startmenu Actual Results: SeaMonkey starts up, but the window is empty/blank! http://mulder.dummwiedeutsch.de/temp/SeaMonkey_Bug1.jpg http://mulder.dummwiedeutsch.de/temp/SeaMonkey_Bug2.jpg Expected Results: SeaMonkey should startup properly.

Works for me. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-AT; rv:1.8.1.2pre) Gecko/20070111 SeaMonkey/1.1

Not sure if it's related to this bug, but seems to. Computer 1: WinXPSP1 - Seamonkey 1.0.6 Computer 2: WinXPSP2 - Seamonkey 1.0.7 I updated both of them with Seamonkey 1.1 and observe the same behaviour: I've got quicklaunch enabled on boot time. Once a navigator is opened from the quicklaunch icon, no more windows (mail, navigator or so) can be opened from it. Also couldn't launch new navigator windows from desktop icon. Clicking links on other applications so not open a new tab on existing window (as configured on preferences) or load onto an existing tab. If I exit seamonkey from quicklaunch icon (thus, disabling the quicklaunch itself) everything begins to work OK. Reproducible: always

I too have a quicklaunch problem in SeaMonkey 1.1, looks like the same ... upgrade from Seamonkey 1.0.7 on XP Home. I have appearance prefs to show mail/news only on start (not navigator). To reproduce... 1. Exit seamonkey from the quicklaunch icon (check no seamonkey processes are running) 2. Launch seamonkey (my mail/news windows appears)- BUT the quicklaunch icon does not appear even if quicklaunch is set in the preferences 3. Unset quicklaunch pref, OK, then set quicklaunch in the prefs, OK- the quicklaunch icon appears. 4. Exit seamonkey by closing all the windows. 5. Observe Seamonkey process ID changes as quicklaunch restart seamonkey. 6. Launch seamonkey - the quicklaunch icon is still there, but the navigator (not mail) window. Seamonkey has the PID as in 5. 7. Exit seamonkey by closing all seamonkey windows - the quicklaunch icon is still there, but the seamonkey still has process ID as in 5 - ie seamonkey did not really exit. 8. Repeat 6 and 7 as much as you like. 9. Exit seamonkey from the quicklanch icon and you go back to 1. Confirmed that disabling quicklaunch in the prefs works - seamonkey process dies every time you close the last window. Looks like it maybe something to do with the (a) starting quicklaunch when the seamonkey process starts, and/or (b) start of the new seamonkey process by quicklaunch when you exit seamonkey , which then stops seamonkey exiting properly.

Upgraded from SeaMonkey 1.07 to 1.1 and now, when I use Quick Launch, it will not start both mail and browser although setting in preferences-appearance are marked to do so. Only Navigator opens and sometimes Navigator will open in a small box in the upper left corner of the screen and won't function. I have not had any problem with this prior to installing 1.1. No problem if Quick Launch is disabled.

@Bill Cassel What you describe is exactly what I experience with all SM v1.1 builds!

The latest Nightly Build of SeaMonkey 1.5a seem to fix the problem. Can other users confirm? Will the fix be included in 1.1 branch ???

I loaded SeaMonkey 1.5a, Build ID: 2007021209, and still cannot get both navigator and mail to open with quick launch either on or off.

Chris, perhaps this, bug 367680 or bug 366569 is what you refer to in bug 368423 and 368424 - "dupe that here ..." chris probably wants to keep to one issue per bug and has opened a series of bugs for QL, so you can dup your bug to one of these: bug 368418 bug 368421 bug 368423 bug 368424 FWIW, there are ~60 open bugs against quicklaunch.

It seems to me, that this build fixed my bug: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/nightly/latest-mozilla1.8/seamonkey-1.1.1.en-US.win32.installer.exe

Neil, would this one have been fixed by your patch?

Well, since this is a QL startup bug, then it's possible that it's relevant.

The application appears to correctly exit, the QL icon disappears and reappears as previously as the processes restart.

I downloaded SeaMonkey 1.1.1 yesterday, 2/28, and as of yet, I have not had any problems with quicklaunch. SeaMonkey seem to be opening properly with no errors. 1.1.1 seems to have addressed my problem.
