As an aside, I have never "installed" a Mozilla app. I always use the

you want with a name such as SM_Version_XXX, or something that is
meaningful to you. Then create a shortcut.

WOW !
Not a Compuker-Savy person anymore (well a smidgen maybe...) - so by
"partition" do you mean another Drive letter on the same drive - or a
totally different storage (like a Thumb Drive) device ?
What you describe sounds VERY good.....if I just completely understand
all of it - and know enough to set it up !
Thanks for taking the time to describe that !

Yes, DocBill, as far as you are concerned, a Partition is 'just' a Drive
letter.
e.g., I have a 500 GB hard drive in this laptop, but I only have Windows
7 accessing about a third of that space (I have a different Operating
System, Linux, on the rest) on the Physical Hard Drive. I have...
a) my Windows 7 Operating System Partition, the C:\ drive, on about 40 Gb,
b) then my programs (MSOffice, SeaMonkey, etc.), on the 80 GB D:\ drive
(or Partition), and,
c) then I have my SeaMonkey Profile and and music file on a 30 GB E:\
drive (or Partition)
A lot of Computer Users will have just the one Partition, their C:\,
which will occupy the entire space of their physical hard disk!
And that's fine, as long as the computer does what they want, who cares
how it is set up!!
