In January 2006, SeaMonkey 1.0 was released, a 1.1 release followed a
year later. Another three years later, the SeaMonkey project is
discontinuing support for the SeaMonkey 1.x series today in favor of
SeaMonkey 2.0, which is not only more modern, but also maintained for
stability and security problems.
As the SeaMonkey 1.x series no longer receives security updates, due
to resource constraints, the SeaMonkey team strongly urges users of
that series to upgrade. Additionally, the team continues to strongly
urge people still using the old Mozilla Suite or Netscape 4, 6 or 7
to upgrade to the new SeaMonkey 2.0 version. All these older software
packages suffer from a large, and steadily increasing, number of
security vulnerabilities because they are no longer being maintained.
Everyone on reasonably modern operating systems is urged to switch to
the newest release available for free download from the open source
project's website at www.seamonkey-project.org, providing the
familiar suite functionality in a remodernized application with
additional features and fully up to date security.
For the few who can't afford that, a last 1.x release is available.
SeaMonkey 1.1.19 does fix a few security issues, but not all known
security vulnerabilites, some of which may even be grave. Those are
only fixed in the new SeaMonkey 2.0, which will continue to be
maintained for quite some time and updated for any security issues as
they might arise, while the team is working on evolving the
well-known suite even further in future versions.

Have upgraded my 1.1.1 install with 1.1.19, running SnoLep. No issues
so far...
...make that 1.1.18.
Do you have a a Panther or Jaguar machine up and running? If so, could
you try installing 1.1.19 on them?
My experience is that SM 1.1.19 bounces in the Dock for a minute, then
crashes before opening.
Any chance you have crash-stats reports to link us to?
