And more.

I poked around in program files/seamonkey and found that most of the
sub directories were empty and many of the files in the directory
seemed outdated.  A symptom of this problem is that spell check wasn't
working.  I backed it up and copied most of a program files/seamonkey
from a machine that works a little better.  Now the problem machine
seems to be somewhat better too.

I'm not recommending the above.  I have no idea if I've caused other
problems and side effects by doing that.

I would very much like to know what caused this problem so as to be
able to avoid it in future. I get the feeling that the installed just
stopped in the middle without saying why.  I compared the two install
files that I used, and they seem to be the same.

Something else,  I noticed after doing an install that even if the
launch SeaMonkey box was checked, SeaMonkey didn't launch.  I think
it's possible that it removed one of the icons from my desktop too.
And I think the Start/Program/SeaMonkey is Empty now.
