For Windows 2000/XP systems, you need Administrator privileges to
install SeaMonkey. If you see an "Error 5" message during installation,
make sure you're running the installation with Administrator privileges.

To install SeaMonkey by downloading the SeaMonkey installer, follow these steps:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
Click the link to
<tt>
seamonkey-2.xx.en-US.win32.installer.exe
</tt>
(or
similar file name) on the site you're downloading SeaMonkey from to
download the installer file to your machine.
</li>
<li>
Navigate to where you downloaded the file and double-click the
installer file icon on your machine to begin the Setup program.
</li>

Extract the .zip file to a directory such as
<tt>
C:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey

Linux Installation Instructions

There is no installer available, but just extracting the tar.bz2
to the default directory (usually
<tt>
/usr/local/seamonkey
</tt>
) achieves the
same result as an installer would.
</p>
<p>
To install SeaMonkey by downloading the tar.bz2 file:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
Create a directory named "seamonkey" (
<tt>
mkdir seamonkey
</tt>
) and change
to that directory (cd seamonkey).
</li>
<li>
Click the link on the site you're downloading SeaMonkey from to
download the package (seamonkey*.tar.bz2) file into the seamonkey
directory.
</li>
<li>
Change to the seamonkey directory (cd seamonkey) and decompress the
file with the following command:
<p><tt>
tar jxvf seamonkey*.tar.bz2
</tt></p>
This creates a "seamonkey" directory under your seamonkey directory.
</li>
<li>
Change to the seamonkey directory (
<tt>
cd seamonkey
</tt>
).
</li>
<li>
Run SeaMonkey with the following run script:
<p><tt>
./seamonkey
</tt></p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>
To hook up SeaMonkey complete with icon to the GNOME Panel,
follow these steps:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
Click the GNOME Main Menu button, open the Panel menu, and then open
the Add to Panel submenu and choose Launcher.
</li>
<li>
Right-click the icon for SeaMonkey on the Panel and enter the
following command:
<p><tt>
directory_name./seamonkey
</tt></p>
where
<tt>
directory_name
</tt>
is the name of the directory you downloaded
SeaMonkey to. For example, the default directory that SeaMonkey
suggests is
<tt>
/usr/local/seamonkey
</tt>
.
</li>
<li>
Type in a name for the icon, and type in a comment if you wish.
</li>
<li>
Click the icon button and type in the following as the icon's location:
<p><tt>
directory_name/chrome/icons/default/default.xpm
</tt></p>
where, again,
<tt>
directory_name
</tt>
is the directory where you installed
SeaMonkey. For example, using the default directory
<tt>
/usr/local/seamonkey
</tt>
results in an icon location of
<tt>
/usr/local/seamonkey/chrome/icons/default/default.xpm
</tt>
