In in your profile directory/folder, locate the user.js file. If there
is no such file, open an ASCII text editor (e.g., Notepad on Windows) to
create it.
In user.js enter the following:
user_pref("signon.startup.prompt", false);
// don't ask for master password until it's used, bug #338549
Note that the semi-colon (;) at the end of the first line is mandatory.
The second line is merely a comment to remind you why you did this.
For this to be effective, you must terminate SeaMonkey completely and
then restart it.
