Forget it! I have used SeaMonkey on both Linux and Windows; the latter were the newer versions.
It ended up being a dead project from the start. Mozilla had reached the programming end with its browser, what should a group of "enthusiasts" there do? The end was in sight. SeaMonkey has long had the same engine as Firefox.
I have tried quite many browsers on Windows like Linux: The first was Mosaic (Windows), then probably Netscape, and finally IE 3.1. For me, IE was the best browser up to version 8.0. That is where the problems started; under Vista. IE 9 was a total disaster. I was forced to switch to Chrome, and that is where I am to this day - as my main browser.
For me, IE 7 was the best browser to date, for its time, and partly to this day. It was even cited as a reference browser in the Linux Magazin article about browsers on Linux.
My conclusion: Forget SeaMonkey!
