I do not remove existing extensions or SeaMonkey itself when installing a new version of SeaMonkey. Thus, I do not have to reinstall any of my extensions. I do copy my profile folders in case I want to revert back to a prior version of SeaMonkey. Since extensions are installed per-profile, I do not have to reinstall my extensions if I revert. -- David E. Ross The Crimea is Putin's Sudetenland. The Ukraine will be Putin's Czechoslovakia.
