About profiles

A SeaMonkey profile is information that is specific to a user, such as preferences, bookmarks, mail and newsgroup accounts, address books, cookies, passwords, etc. Profiles are stored in a separate location from the directory in which you installed SeaMonkey. This keeps the information separate; so if/when you decide to upgrade, uninstalling SeaMonkey will not touch your profile data. When you first install SeaMonkey, a new profile named default is automatically created. Using the Profile Manager, you can create, delete, and rename profiles in any location you wish. Each profile registry is specific to each operating system account; so if you're using Windows XP, profiles for other XP users will not appear in your Profile Manager, and yours will not appear anywhere else. If you have more than one profile in your list, SeaMonkey will ask you which profile you want to use when you start. See the Profile FAQ for more info.

About Chrome

On this site, you may see references to Chrome folders. The chrome is that part of the application window that lies outside of a window's content area. Toolbars, menu bars, progress bars, and window title bars are all examples of elements that are typically part of the chrome. The chrome itself is not native to any operating system, so it is very customizable. This is why you can change the skin of the entire program.
