No. If you go to the menu bar and select [Help > About SeaMonkey], you
get the user agent string that SeaMonkey currently sends to Web servers.
In one of my profiles, [Help > About SeaMonkey] shows
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.4)
Gecko/20091017 SeaMonkey/2.0 NOT Firefox/3.5.3
I use this profile only for those financial institutions that
incorrectly sniff for "Firefox" instead of "Gecko".
Using the PrefBar extension in all of my profiles, I can make [Help >
About SeaMonkey] show the same Firefox spoof or show
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1)
or
Opera/9.10 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)
or
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US)
AppleWebKit/525.19 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/1.0.154.48
Safari/525.19
or even blank.
Note that there is no <about:SeaMonkey> for the address area.

Go to Mozdev at <http://www.mozdev.org/> for quick access to
extensions for Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, and other
Mozilla-related applications. You can access Mozdev much
more quickly than you can Mozilla Add-Ons.
