Okay. I may be losing my mind.
I tried those themes mentioned in the thread: "New Complete Themes
for
SeaMonkey"
I removed them.
I just noticed that the scroll bars in SeaMonkey are different.
Notice
the vertical scroll bars in these screen shots:

<http://edmullen.net/temp/sm02.jpg>
Umm, have they looked like that before? Or did temporarily
installing
those themes somehow permanently modify the packaged Modern
theme? Or
am I just losing it?
Themes do change scrollbars as well as toolbars.
...but they shouldn't persist once you change the Theme to another
one.
Now I'm *really* suspicious...
They do if installed as a separate extension when installing the theme.
Nobody noticed they were installing two add-ons?
Looking at the Metal Lion Silver Sea Monkey theme I see an extension
called Metal Lion Sea Monkey Silver Scrollbars that comes with the
theme. Same for the Sea Monkey Metal Lion theme called Metal Lion Sea
Monkey Scrollbars II.
I like the Silver theme best.
Check your extensions and remove the scrollbar extension.
I went to the Mozillazine artice cited in the OP. There I clicked the
two links:
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/metal-lion-silver-sea-monkey/>
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/metal-lion-sea-monkey/>
Each points to a Mozilla add-ons page where I clicked the "Add to
SeaMonkey" buttons. The only new things that showed up in my Add-ons
Manager were those two themes. When I Removed them in Add-ons Manager
their .xpi folders/files remained behind, causing the issue I first
cited.
Interesting.
There were no Scrollbars extensions shown and zero indication that
something that modifies the Modern theme was going to be installed.
This is what I see when I click "Add to SeaMonkey" for the Metal Lion
Silver theme. Note I can choose to Cancel or Install Now.

Sorry if you didn't see that there is a Scrollbars extension for each
theme.
You were installing a complete theme, not a lightweight theme, and you
expected it to not change your Modern theme?
smdh
I expected to only install what the mozilla.addons told me I was
installing. And, as far as I can tell, that is only what was installed.
Well, I guess you are as blind as a bat if you can't see the two items
in each screen shot I posted links for, that mozilla.addons told me I
would be installing. Probably didn't look at them.
How about taking one so we can see what you were offered to install.
The author of this extension/theme needs to fix his mess.
So tell him on his support site.
And, while, the addons.mozilla pages state a caution that mozilla has
not reviewd the extension, Mozilla needs to adjust its policies. This
is totally unaccepable that something hosted on Mozilla breaks a basic
Mozilla sw build. The extension should NOT be hosted at an official
Mozilla site.
All themes change the default theme of SeaMonkey, Firefox or
Thunderbird, because the developer didn't like the default themes.
The Modern theme in SeaMonkey changes the default theme.
