He said that it is a problem with Norton not updating the latest information with Seamonkey and that Norton was about 6 months behind in their updates and that I should go to Norton and get into their forums and find out more about this issue as it is common with Norton's sometimes getting false positives. Anyone know about or use SeaMonkey browser - posted in Web Browsing/Email and Other Internet Applications: I am using SeaMonkey browser when I go to my yahoo I get this as seen in the screenshot. The guy on that forum told me not to worry about it. I went to a Seamonkey forum and got an answer. Since I used to use Netscape, a long while back, I latched onto Seamonkey browser suite because of it's ability to download e-mail, write HTML style pages for website use in it's Composer application, also part of the suite and the fact that up until the last two updates I never had any strange warnings from Norton. I think this may be one reason many people do not use Seamonkey. I think Norton found a false positive and took action to be safe, but if it had permanently deleted my browser because of this I would have had to lose all of my email, my email filters, my tabs and bookmarks. If there is any problem with the latest few patches or updates to my Seamonkey browser I have not been able to find this out.

#Seamonkey browser reporting a virus update#
But before, while the update file was in Norton 360 quarantine, the entire browser would not load and further, Microsoft Windows declared the shortcut was linked to a missing program. Now that said, my browser is running smoothly and it managed to update itself.
I also had to check the box to remove this item from its list of suspect files. I had to override this action by removing the file from quarantine. Norton 360 pegged the file not as a Seamonkey update but rather, a virus and placed it's level of severity at high. This happened about 3 weeks ago when Seamonkey, a Mozilla project browser suite, tried to update itself.
