You do not open it. You download it. 1. On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Tools > Add-ons Manager]. 2. On the Add-ons Manager window, there is a button near the top-right -- to the immediate left of "Search all add-ons" -- that has the image of a machine gear. Select that button. 3. On the resulting pull-down context menu, select "Install Add-on From File". 4. On the Select Add-on to install window, navigate to where the file was downloaded. 5. Select the file. 6. Select the Open button. 7. If you get a popup that indicates you must enable installation, do so; and then repeat the prior steps. -- David E.
