I thought xpcom.dll had been dropped a while back so was surprised by 
the error message.

I did download all necessary packages from Steves Warpzilla site - Thank 
you Steve for figuring out and packaging required files.


Problem Resolved : Operator Error - Failed to read the mozsupport.txt 
before attempting to run seamonkey.

Having rectified my error I discovered that the files in the nss 
directory in the mozsupport package needed to be on the libpath.

Having sorted that out seamonkey starts fine.

Thanks for your efforts in keeping Seamonkey available for OS/2 users.
