Abstract
We discuss the latest CCFR determination of the strange sea density of the proton. We comment on the differences with a previous, leading--order, result and point out the relevance of quark mass effects and current non--conservation effects. By taking them into account it is possible to solve the residual discrepancy with another determination of the strange quark distribution. Two important sources of uncertainties are also analyzed.
