Because Firefox discontinued support and it was also discontinued in the Gecko
backend SeaMonkey uses. Its great that it still works but it is completely
unsupported. SeaMonkey 2.40 shouldn't have updated itself but ewong already
stated that this was/is a problem on the update servers.
Older OSX code was removed from the backend. It looks like in Gecko 49 only
non essential parts or maybe even none at all got the axe. The next version
will not run at all on older Macs.

Hi,
According to posts I have read in this newsgroup Seamonkey 2.46 no longer
supports Mac OS 6-8. Is this true?
I am running 2.46 on a late 2006 iMac running 10.7.5 Seamonkey runs very well
on my iMac. I have not noticed any issues or problems with SeaMonkey. So why
do developers such as Edmund Wong claim that 2.46 will not run on Mac OS 10.6-8?
