The best way PROBABLY is to FIRST upgrade to the latest update of 2.0 (that would be 2.0.14, I think). That will automatically *copy* your profile to a new location (your old 1.1.18 profile will remain unaffected). Note that you SHOULD NOT install Seamonkey 2.x in the same location you have Seamonkey 1.1.18 currently. I think the default install locations won't attempt to do it anyway, but you shouldn't force the issue. You can then upgrade from 2.0 to 2.2 (or later) in the normal way. why not do it in one step? Well, you could, but later versions of Seamonkey are unable to import some minor stuff from the old profile -- I think the only thing lost is the download history. Since you said you want to keep ALL the info, the two-step process is better. Note that many (most?) of your add-ons will probably stop working, and you will have to either upgrade to a later, SM-2.X compatible version, or to find a suitable replacement. I should mention that back when Seamonkey 2 was originally offered, some people had minor problems with upgrading.
