Thhe Flash was installed under eCs20rc4, and Flash version of FF namely 
the 17.0.11esr are kicked off by a separate firefoxnewprofile_flash.cmd 
file, and only from  inside eCs20rc4. Here we are talking about 
SeaMonkey/2, i.e. SMPmW118 and as She sometimes have both SM/2 and FF/2 
(the 10.0.2 version) running in parallell - I know its an old version 
but if you only have 640Mib RAM, so if for example She wants to grab an 
old Top Ten song from youtube, the steps She takes are as follows: Close 
SM, fire up FF/2, search Google for the relevant youtube, click on it, 
copy the youtube adress to the ManyClip clipboard, close down FF, fire 
up SMPMW118, bring up the Navigator window, go to the conversion site 
and extract the mp3 file there. Note that She ALWAYS starts SMPmW118 and 
various versions of FF/2 from separate cmd files - She have listed the 
relevant cmd file for SMPMw118 for you where -P Default" points to a 
profile named 
y:\mozilla.org\mozilla\mozilla\profiles\cribo.jacobsson\<catname>.slt 
and under that is Mail->mail1.901.telia.com where Her mail are stored.

Now you recommended Her to make a totally new profile in SMPmW118 so 
these pesky mail problems go away, but (1) can this be done withou the 
new profile creating a new mail and news tree, i.e. letting the new 
profile point to the mail1.901.telia.com (for email) and the News dir 
(for news) and (2) how do She "migrate" over Her bookmarks, cookies, 
passwords, certificates and similar stuff to the new profile? Ane when 
we are at email itself discussion, WHERE is the information about the 
mail panes stored? She have three panes: the leftmost contains the top 
entry for the mail content and it's subfolders plus the number of 
unread, total and size of each subfolder. The two rightmost panes are 
the mail listing which have the following entries going from left to 
right: Icon for attachhment, Recipient, Sender, Junk symbol, Subject, 
Date&time, size, Flag and Size. This order She wants preserved if She 
creates a new profile. and when the profile creation is done SMPmW118 
will be kicked off by a new .cmd file but pointing to the new profile 
instead.
