"still a work in progress..."
Version: SeaMonkey 2.6.1
Pros
Reasonably fast; doesn't crash when some applications (such as Flash) are used
Cons
Must use search engine to access a site--cannot go directly to a site just by typing in the web address.
Summary
As I mentioned, still a work in progress. Hopefully more people will discover SeaMonkey and this browser will be more polished as a result.

"Does everything, fast and efficiently"
Version: SeaMonkey 2.0.14
Pros
Fast, clean lines, very customisable
Cons
nothing i can think of.
Summary
I downloaded SeaMonkey to give it a try because it was touted as being faster than all the rest. It's really good but doesn't do anything other browsers don't do and I don't find it any faster than Safari. I probably won't use it as my default but it's worth keeping and it updates it's add-ons automatically without fanfare like Firefox or IE.

"Love it but, CNET, get the download info right!"
Version: SeaMonkey 2.1
Pros
Sea Monkey is my second favorite browser after Safari. Simple to use. Good for teaching kids.
Cons
Only that CNET won't get the version number right. Very annoying and diminishes my confidence in them.
Summary
Good browser
