Part of the reason for that is that because of the change in toolkits, it was decided that the best course (safer) would be *not* to install over the older version. So, keeping it on C:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey was out. Of course, it would be possible to use C:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey2. But the other thing is, Seamonkey is not really a Mozilla Foundation project. The old Mozilla Application Suite was, Seamonkey is not. Seamonkey is a "community" project or whatever is the jargon nowadays. And then, not even mozilla.org's flagship, Firefox, uses the C:\Program Files\mozilla.org\ folder anymore. It was kinda funny that the one piece of software to use the mozilla.org folder wasn't a project of the MoFo... Going forward, the change is probably for the best. New users looking for the application folder are more likely to look for the program's name than for mozilla.org. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
