SeaMonkey 1.1.18 Security Release

Today, the SeaMonkey project released a new version of its all-in-one
internet suite. SeaMonkey 1.1.18 closes several security vulnerabilities
and fixes a few smaller problems found in previous versions. With that,
SeaMonkey stays at the same level of security as its siblings
Thunderbird 2, which has been issuing updates for the same problems
recently as well.

The SeaMonkey team urges users of older SeaMonkey versions, including
the SeaMonkey 1.0.x series, which no longer receives security updates,
to upgrade. Additionally, the team continues to strongly urge people
 still using the old Mozilla Suite or Netscape 4, 6 or 7 to upgrade to
the new SeaMonkey 1.1.18 version. All these older software packages
suffer from a large and steadily increasing number of security
vulnerabilities because they are no longer being maintained.
SeaMonkey 1.1.18 is a modern drop-in replacement, providing the same
familiar suite functionality with additional features and fully up to
 date security.

SeaMonkey 1.1.18 is available for free download from the open source
project's website at www.seamonkey-project.org.
