I see that you are using a PC with some form of Windows.  The following
requires that you have a 3-button mouse or a 2-button mouse with a
scroll wheel.

On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Edit > Preferences].  On the left
side of the Preferences window under Category, select [Browser > Tabbed
Browsing].  On the Tabbed Browsing pane, select the checkbox (to put a
checkmark in it) for "Middle-click, Ctrl+click [etc]" near the bottom
under "Open tabs instead of windows for".  Select the OK button.

If you have a two-button mouse with a scroll wheel, you are not yet
done.  At the left of the Windows task bar, select [Start > Settings >
Control Panel].  On the Control Panel window, select (double-click)
Mouse.  On the Mouse Properties window, select the Buttons tab.  On the
Buttons pane, select Button 3 and then the Modify button.  On the Modify
Button Function window, select the down-pointing triangle to get a
selection list; and select Middle Button.  Select the OK button on the
Modify Button Function window and then the OK button on the Mouse
Properties window.

Now, when you place your cursor over a link and click the middle button
or scroll wheel, the link will open a Web page in a new tab.  Note that,
with SeaMonkey 2, tabs can be dragged into a new order (e.g., moving the
2nd tab to after the 4th tab).
