I have several issues:

1. I'm having a problem with at least one add-on I added the other day.
Symptoms:

a) As part of the status bar I have a inch long mostly blank space that
has a red "^" on the left halfway down.
b) Once I open the email window, and one other window, I cannot open up
the "view source". SeaMonkey does know that I tried to open it. When I
close all viewable SeaMonkey windows and try to exit I can't because it
thinks there's a window open.

This is probably due to the failed add-on.
I suggest you to get "Extension Manager" (requires Extension Uninstaller afaik) from this site: http://mozmonkey.com/ Install it, close Seamonkey (kill it with the taskmanager if necessary) and restart SM. After that there should be an entry in Seamonkey's Tools menu named "Extension Manager" which offers you to manage/uninstall Extensions.
Uninstall the "suspicious" one(s) which you think has caused the error.


3. There used to be an add-on manager like FF has. I couldn't find it.

See above, it needs to be installed. In Seamonkey 2.0 it will be available by default.


4. I tried to uninstall SeaMonkey and re-install it to get rid of ALL
personal settings (to solve the add-on problem - #1). I even did the
re-install in a different folder. When I rebooted and re-installed, all
my email settings were in effect. I couldn't find any file which
SeaMonkey could be using that wasn't removed in the uninstall.

The Seamonkey program is separate from your profile (which stores all your data, inlcuding mail etc.). If you want to get rid of our settings, you need to use a new profile, not a new program installation. You can do so by deleting your old one or just by creating an additional profile for now if you want to copy some things later on (e.g. mails) To create an additional profile, start the Seamonkey ProfileManager either by Seamonkey's startmenu entry or call it directly from the "Tools" menu in Seamonkey named "Switch Profile" or similar. I think the needed steps are pretty straight forward, otherwise feel free to ask. After creating a new profile Seamonkey will ask which profile to use on each start. Select your new one an start.

After you have verified that everything runs fine you maybe want to recreate your email-ccounts etc. After that you can copy your inbox and sent file etc. from the old profile to the new profile (if you wish to keep the old stuff). If you don't care about any old settings feel free to delete the old profile.

More information about the profile (e.g. where it is located) can be found here: http://seamonkey.ilias.ca/profilefaq/#locations
