I understand you.
In detail you must do the following. Copy these files from firefox into 
seamonkey overwriting the existing files (you have *.dll instead of *.so):
libfreebl3.chk
libfreebl3.so
libnspr4.so
libnss3.so
libnssckbi.so
libnssdbm3.chk
libnssdbm3.so
libnssutil3.so
libplc4.so
libplds4.so
libsmime3.so
libsoftokn3.chk
libsoftokn3.so
libssl3.so
I did it on linux, on windows it should be the same, please check it! I hope 
you have chk files too. However i have firefox 45.4.0 (esr) not the 46.
