Just FYI, my top-level SM 1.1.X profile directory also indicates Read Only when viewed in Windows/Explorer and my application is running normally. Note that when I view the properties of individual files (not directories), they don't show as read only. Perhaps checking the directories is not the correct approach? I'm running Windows/XP SP3, btw. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
