<li>Venkman, the JavaScript Debugger, will be disabled and shown as incompatible

remedy the situation, uninstall Venkman using the Add-ons Manager, restart SeaMonkey
and then install the file {f13b157f-b174-47e7-a34d-4815ddfdfeb8}.xpi from the
distribution/extensions directory of your SeaMonkey 2.1 installation (either using
drag&amp;drop to a SeaMonkey window or using the Add-ons Manager).</li>
