You can only have one copy running at a time. In cases like yours
there's typically something running that is identified as Seamonkey
1.1.18. The usual culprit is Seamonkey 1.1.18 quick launch. Disable
that and reboot.
Then if it still doesn't work look in Task Manager to see if anything
Seamonkey is running. If so shut it down; you may need to reboot.
If it still doesn't work try booting into safe mode and launch 2.0.
Luck,

I am having a similar problem. Last night I installed Seamonkey 2.0
over top of 1.1.18. The installation went well and at the end it
opened 2.0 and I used it for a while.
This morning I booted up my computer and opened Seamonkey only to find
that it is still 1.1.18! Add/Remove programs shows 2.0 installed.
Searching the hard drive shows 2 installations: Program Files/
Seamonkey and Program Files/mozilla.org/Seamonkey, however the
Seamonkey.exe file in both of these only opens 1.1.18.
Is 2.0 a new kind of vaporware?;-)
