Obviously, if I wanted to install and use two different versions, I had to avoid overlapping the two versions. Nice to know that you don't get any problem ... but could you start SeaMonkey by using this way: Start - All Programs - Seamonkey ... ? Yes. Because I set my Start Menu Properties in Windows XP to Classic Start menu and because I group SeaMonkey and Thunderbird together under Mozilla, the sequence is [Start Programs Mozilla SeaMonkey2 SeaMonkey]. Before I removed SeaMonkey 1.1.18, I also had [Start Programs Mozilla SeaMonkey1 SeaMonkey]. This was part of how I avoided overlapping the two versions. Ok, now i understand. I had installed SM1 all by default, then installed SM2 by default. Finally i removed SM1 and the problem was that the start-browser and the start-mail dissappeared from Start - All Programs - Seamonkey because SM1 and SM2 have different repositories, different program locations but have the *same* location for the start links under Start - All Programs - Seamonkey. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
