:It's not a bug, it's a feature. By default, SeaMonkey initializes MailNews in the background even if you just open the browser. This way it can check for new mail and notify you while you can start browsing right away and not be distracted too much by the MailNews window in case there is no new mail. You can disable this behavior by going to Preferences, Mail & Newsgroups and selecting "Only check for new mail after opening Mail & Newsgroups". Once you did that, the next time you restart SeaMonkey it will only start checking for new mail once you opened MailNews at least once during the browsing session.

;The scrolling speed on Windows has changed. What can I do?
:The scrolling speed can be configured through the Windows mouse settings. Many people do not know that, though. Starting with SeaMonkey 2.1, if you didn't change the Windows default, the scrolling of web pages has been changed to be twice as fast as before. If you want to revert that, go to about:config, search for "mousewheel.system_scroll_override_on_root_content.enabled" (without the quotes) and toggle the pref to false by double clicking the result line.
