I don't have seamonkey installed so haven't tried myself, but does
it even run as root?
If it does, I would consider running a web browser as root and
then actually using it to view a web site (that I didn't 100%
control, etc) to be really really unwise, for security reasons.
But maybe I am not giving it enough credit; perhaps it drops
privileges before continuing, or something.
Cheers,
Andy
