I was able to visit over the holidays, and the new SM is now installed and working. It turns out that it could have been done without admin rights anyway; I must have originally installed it "per user" and that's why the updates had been working for over five years. -- Gerry Hickman (London UK) ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
