When you have set SeaMonkey as default newsgroup reader, it asks you again on next startup of SeaMonkey if you want to set SeaMonkey as default newsgroup reader. This is due to shared.nsh and nsWindowsShellService.cpp being out of sync.
Attached patch PatchSplinter Review
Fixes this bug. Also looked at a few other (special) cases which needed changing.
Comment on attachment 352326 [details] [diff] [review] Patch Sync setter (helper.exe/uninstaller) and getter (nsWindowsShellService.cpp) if SeaMonkey is default news app. Need to use -mail as -news does not quite do what we want (it opens MailNews in full screen mode, a bug).
