No it doesn't happen in Firefox.

Then that's only because it defaults to saving everything to a defined directory, without asking. Change its preferences to ask each time and it will behave exactly like SM.

Then the Seamonkey developers have a brain wave to associate Web sites
with saved Windows directories which obviously suits someone's purpose

In fact it was the Firefox developers who made the change. It only affects SM, too because the change was made to shared code.

but as far as I can find out they don't
provide any configuration option to chose the long standing save page
Windows directory convention.

Well, if I had implemented it I'd have provided an option to let users opt out of the new behavior. You'll need to ask the FF devs why they chose differently.

I was hoping someone would have a configuration fix for this problem
but I guess not so I'll just have to bite the bullet and switch
permanently to Firefox, and use a separate page editor when needed.

As explained above, switching to FF won't fix it for you. If there's a setting in FF that makes it behave the way you want to have it then I'm sure that same setting exists in SM, too. In the unlikely event that I'm wrong, we can surely talk about changing that.

There are also some  image problems I have with Seamonkey that don't
happen in Firefox.  Try accessing this page: 
http://www.kitco.com/charts/livegold.html
with both browsers.   Notice anything missing with Seamonkey?  On mine
I can't see the GIF charts. Maybe it's configuration but both browsers
I have use the  default installation. Chrome and all other browsers
work fine. And there are other Web sites that I have image problems
with Seamonkey, many Wikipedia images for example.

I'm pretty sure that's a configuration issue. Try with a new profile.
