Well, is there any evidence of this? I find it hard to believe that any user would install SeaMonkey (or any program for that matter) directly into "C:/Documents And Settings" rather than a sub-directory under that or any other directory. Perhaps the person suspected of this can clarify? > > Letting the install program install the peograms into the default > directory "Program Files" give a better chance to avoid problems. I suspect you mean "... install to a directory under Program Files...", but that isn't actually necessary. I rarely install under Program Files (of course, I never install programs anywhere under Documents And Settings either). > > Anyway, we never will receive informations asked to john: > Where exactly in what precide directory he have : > > Itunes data ? > Itunes program ? > SM programs ? > SM data ? Yes. I suspect this thread is dead and relegated now to SM bashing. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
