There's no "Seamonkey" anything on my menu bar to click on.  On the
extreme left is the little triangle that does the menu bar show/hide
and then comes the File  Edit  View  options just like you have.

Are you using a 1.x or 2.x version of SeaMonkey?  I thought I used to
be able to add and remove file type extensions at will, but that
functionality seems to not be there any more :(
