Stationary disk models for accretion disks in symbiotic stars are presented. It is found that due to the influence of molecules on the material functions, the accretion disks are optically thick for all mass transfer rates, and a second unstable branch in the surface density relation appears which is due mainly to the formation/distintegration of H2O. In the second part, it is suggested that the lightcurves of symbiotic stars result from the time dependent evolution of accretion disks around main sequence stars, and are governed by the same accretion disk instability that may be responsible for dwarf novae outbursts.
