Apologies to those who do not use Linux.

Several possible reasons for that. From your UA i am assuming you are
using Linux. Open a xterm and be sure that you are not root by issuing
the command whoami.

You can be sure that in your profile the file prefs.js exists, otherwise
SM could not work. So let us find your profile. In Linux it will be
under the directory .mozilla in your HOME.

Instead of pure theory i will give examples using my own machine. Issue
the command 'find ~/.mozilla -name prefs.js' in your xterm. Without the '.

hafi@i5_64 ~ $ find ~/.mozilla -name prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/hafi/aa5yl3h1.slt/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/2i0zee4d.testrel/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/vmm39xrx.testt/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/81btqpem.mnen/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/jdgwbvof.t/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/yjmshkey.default/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/l2yj2kde.ue/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/fawl5rx6.32/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/t32/cjbkp1iv.slt/prefs.js
/home/hafi/.mozilla/moz_1_3/8msy11f8.slt/prefs.js

My default profile has the name, ehm, 'default' *g*, so the relevant
line here is

/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/yjmshkey.default/prefs.js

and the path to the profile is
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/yjmshkey.default/

The directory in which the userChrome.css belongs should have the name
chrome and be directly on the top level of the profile.

/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/yjmshkey.default/chrome/.

Probably you have already the userChrome.css somewhere under .mozilla,
so let us look for it.

hafi@i5_64 ~ $ find ~/.mozilla -name userChrome.css
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/81btqpem.mnen/chrome/userChrome.css
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/yjmshkey.default/chrome/userChrome.css

Here you can see the location of the userChrome.css in my own default
profile and the command should show the location of your own userChrome.css.

If you do not see it, that may be because in Linux names are case
sensitive. 'chrome' means 'chrome' and not 'Chrome'. ;) So use '-iname'
instead of 'name' to catch this issue.

hafi@i5_64 ~ $ find ~/.mozilla -iname uSerchroME.Css
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/81btqpem.mnen/chrome/userChrome.css
/home/hafi/.mozilla/seamonkey/yjmshkey.default/chrome/userChrome.css
