After a quick google, SeaMonkey seems to be an all-in-one application suite (read: a slow clusterforget of IRC clients, address books and other unnecessary bloat). I don't need this much stuff running all at once, so no.

BRB firefox

Try a pre-webkit version of Opera; IIRC the last one to use their own engine was 12.17. You can also try Pale Moon which is Firefox 24 with some bloat removed.

This surprises me a lot because it was the only browser that crap laptop could even think of opening. Maybe the windows port is garbage, I was running it on Linux to try to squeeze every ounce of performance out of it.
