In fact I'm using that Win7 w/SeaMonkey 2.0.4 now. Again, not sure how it magically got interpreted... but pretty amazing that it did work w/o issue. Another interesting fact is, if I look at the Win7 prefs.js file, it still shows the path information for the linux install. On linx-to-linux systems I normally edit this file to correct the paths... but apparently there is no need in Win7? > > Again *backup* before you try anything. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
