All these instructions are for XPI files. What Bill has is a *folder*.

After confirming that the contents of the folder do look like an
extension, there are two ideas:

- Zip the contents of that LastPass folder, rename the ZIP archive .XPI,
  and use that file to install

- Copy that LastPass extension folder to the extensions/ folder of the
  new profile

But, from what I read, Bill has already tried the second one. Does it
show up in about:addons? Did Seamonkey print any error message the first
time it started with the LastPass directory under extensions/ ?

I think Seamonkey should have asked you about installing LastPass if it
did recognize the extension.
