I have a 1.8b2 installed. In todays terminology it would be a 1.8b2pre.

Ah, ok, possibly it was some 1.8 Alpha then. What I wanted to say 
effectively is that is stopped somewhat far from a final 1.8 release.

No such Mozilla version has ever been made public (the last one was 
1.7.13). Looking at your User-Agent string I guess you mean Firefox 
2.0.0.11.


and want to upgrade to SeaMonkey 
1.1.17.  I'm confused about whether I have to un-install Mozilla first 
or if I can install SeaMonkey and will be OK if I don't open both 
programs at the same time.  I'd like to be sure SeaMonkey has picked up 
my profile before I un-install Mozilla.


You can run Firefox and SeaMonkey in parallel without any problem. You 
can install/uninstall either one without affecting the other. SeaMonkey 
won't pick up the Firefox profile, though. Instead you have to transfer 
it manually:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_SeaMonkey

In case you are really talking about Mozilla (a.k.a. as the Mozilla 
Application Suite): SeaMonkey will pick up and continue to use the 
Mozilla profiles you have. As long as you install SeaMonkey into a 
different location than Mozilla and stop using Mozilla after first 
having used one of its profiles with SeaMonkey the change should be 
smooth. You can then uninstall Mozilla at any time, the profiles won't 
be touched by that.

There was a Mozilla ver. 1.8.1.11 and I'm running it using User Agent 
Switcher to make it look like I'm running Firefox 2.0.0.11.


So I guess the last part of your answer applies.  Are you saying that 
if I install SeaMonkey and use the Mozilla profile even one time that 
I can't use Mozilla again without screwing up the works?


The purpose of my query was that I want to make sure SeaMonkey works 
before I un-install Mozilla.  If it doesn't work right what should I 
do un_install it and try again?


Henry

Sorry to be so dumb, but I don't want to loose my profile.

No, 1.7.13 was the last Mozilla version, believe me. User Agent Switcher
probably also changed the Gecko version in addition to adding 
Firefox/2.0.0.11. Anyway...

Well, let's just say it's a bad idea, cf.
http://seamonkey.ilias.ca/profilefaq/#fromMoz

The purpose of my query was that I want to make sure SeaMonkey works 
before I un-install Mozilla.  If it doesn't work right what should I 
do un_install it and try again?


Installing/uninstalling won't help you since both Mozilla and SeaMonkey 
access the same set of profiles, installing/uninstalling either one 
doesn't have any impact on that, only using (running) them.


I suggest you make a full backup of your Mozilla profile(s) before 
installing/running SeaMonkey (cf. 
http://seamonkey.ilias.ca/profilefaq/#locations) and then either try 
with a new profile or with the original one and roll back if it fails 
for you (from my experience the chance for that is low, but just in case).

No, Ver. 1.8.11 was issued.  Please ask Robert Kaiser for 
conformation. This was discussed on earlier posts.


Thanks for your help, I may be back after I read your suggested URL's.

The last nightly that was called Mozilla was 1.8b2 (Gecko 1.8.0.0)

A Gecko version of 21.8.1.11 corresponds to SeaMonkey 1.1.x.

Looks like it.
