Install Thunderbird before you uninstall SeaMonkey (they can be used in

One reason for switching to Firefox is that too many websites do not
recognize Seamonkey as a "supported" browser. Some of them don't even
give you the option to "Continue anyway". The other is that there are
far more addons, plug-ins and themes available for Firefox.
Even if I do stick with Seamonkey (which isn't entirely out of the
question), I _must_ uninstall my current version first to eliminate some
version conflicts which occurred with my last upgrade attempt. I assume
that this will wipe out all of my e-mail, personal data, etc., so the
question remains: What do I need to backup, and how do I restore it so
the new installation uses it?

When you uninstall SeaMonkey, it remove only the program components. All
your e-mail, settings, etc. are kept in your profile, which isn't removed.
Accurate but probably NOT useful ;/
I suspect what the OP was trying to ask was "How does he move to
Firefox seamlessly?" A better phrasing would be "How do I turn
off SeaMonkey and turn on Firefox without noticing the difference?"
I'll soon post a similar question in making what *I DEFINE* as a
"safe" transition from SM 1.x to SM 2.? .
