Step #1 above works only if profile folders are installed in the default location. My profiles are NOT. To find a profile folder: 1. Go to SeaMonkey menu bar and select [Help > Troubleshooting Information]. 2. On the Troubleshooting Information window, under Application Basics, select the Show Folder button to the right of Profile Folder. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com> Consider: * Most state mandate that drivers have liability insurance. * Employers are mandated to have worker's compensation insurance. * If you live in a flood zone, flood insurance is mandatory. * If your home has a mortgage, fire insurance is mandatory. Why then is mandatory health insurance so bad?? _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
