Downloading and installing NS 7.2 sounds easy enough (uninstall 4.5 and
install 7.2), but I'm not sure about the "and convert the existing NS
4.5 profile to NS 7.2 use." It sounds like there's more for me to do
than to just think that this happens automatically. What are the steps
to do this?

When you first install NS 7.2, and run it for the first time, it will
look for a profile. If it finds none in the 7.2 profile location, it
will look in the Communicator profile location. If it finds a
Communicator profile, and it will, it will offer to convert the profile
for 7.2's use.
All your data, your mail, your bookmarks, etc., will be copied and
converted to a format that NS 7.2 can understand. SeaMonkey 1.1.18 can
also use this profile.
Leave NC 4.5 installed for now. Install 7.2 and run it, allowing it to
convert your profile. Open 7.2 and verify that the data is there. Then
you transfer this profile to the new machine. Install 7.2 on the new
machine, and point it to the profile you have moved. I can point you to
directions on how to do this.
Once you are sure you no longer need the data in the old NC 4.5 profile,
you can uninstall 4.5.

I wasn't able to download 7.2 from the "releases" page. But I did
locate a NS 7.1 CD. Is this version O.K.?
