Hi all,
I'm new here today, and I recently downloaded SeaMonkey 2.26, which seemed to
download OK, and I could run it, and I assume its has replaced previous
versions of SeaMonkey.
Why did you not uninstall the previous version before installing the new
one ?
I did not see any instructions to download at the SeaMonkey site. I assumed the
new would replace the old, or upgrade it. But with PC matters I am usually
wrong until proven otherwise, and probably I should have assumed I should get
rid of all SeaMonkey before downloading the 2.26.
But just what to assume? OK, so I tell of my experience to others who may know
more than me, and see what happens......

Patrick, if you install a new version over the top of the old, there may
be some files that existed in the old that don't appear in the new (e.g.
file name change, maybe), so your directory might get filed up with all
sorts of un-used rubbish!
Better way to do it might be to *update* your SM from one version to the
next! Check out Help->Check for updates...
Then "others who may know more than me" will have done what is required
for you.
