Historical background
1. I started out when Netscape 4.x was latest and greatest
   Upgraded over years to Mozilla and then Seamonkey
2. Up until ~4 years ago I was doing some informal support for two
   visually impaired naive users at church. I set my system up
   to emulate the features they typically had problems with.
3. I have some ideas about what makes a page legible, primarily
   use black text on white background wherever possible. So I
   set many things up to override the page designers choices.
4. My system is WinXP Pro SP3. I have no idea (nor really care)
   how IE was configured by my vendor. I use it *ONLY* to access
   MS update site.

The problem
Cruddy conflicting settings have been inherited which prevent some pages from displaying properly. The most annoying problem is that menus appearing when you hover over a link have a transparent background making it illegible (text overwriting text). The pages display properly in a Firefox installation to which I have access.

Questions
1. I'm about to upgrade from Seamonkey 2.0.5. I wish to leave
   all of my existing profiles *UNTOUCHED*. I want my updated
   SeaMonkey to act as if it was first browser ever installed.
   HOW?
2. Where are all the options in prefs.js / user.js documented?
3. Is there anything in prefs.js that cannot be forced to a
   preferred state by a line in user.js.
4. Since I'm obviously out of date should I be learning about
   style sheets? If so, what?

Thank you.
