I am running under Windows XP.
Since installing SeaMonkey 2.0 each time I load SeaMonkey the Colour
Quality setting for my monitor drops from Medium (16 bit) to Low (8 bit)
and has to be reset.

The colours displayed on my monitor have also changed and are much paler
then previously

Is this a SeaMonkey problem?
Is there a solution to these problems?

I don't think so.
Do you have some kind of advanced things for that in your driver to
change application specific?

1. Make sure SeaMonkey is closed.
2. Right-click on the SeaMonkey icon and choose "Properties".
3. Open the "Compatibility" tab.
4. Uncheck everything.

P.S. There is a mailing list for SeaMonkey support at
<https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey>.

*Please* don't recommend the list; they end up posting unthreaded posts
& you end up having to follow their new 're:xyz" all over the group.
Recommend that they simply use nntp news.mozilla.org:

http://www.seamonkey-project.org/community
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/community#groups
news://news.mozilla.org/mozilla.support.seamonkey

How hard is that? In addition, they don't have to waste email download
bandwidth & wade through a bunch of emails to find what they are looking
for. Were it me, I'd simply remove the SeaMonkey lists and google
groups altogether. If nothing else, at *least* provide an FAQ for list
users.
