I just installed SeaMonkey ver 2.10.

I've been using Netscape 7.2 for years, but it's browser crashes on a
lot of web pages these days.

I'm guessing there is a way of moving the address book and bookmarks
from Netscape to SeaMonkey.

If I'm right, I'd appreciate learning what the file names are, where
they are located for Netscape and where to copy them into SeaMonkey.

Thanks guys,

Jeff

This newsgroup netscape.public.mozilla.seamonkey is almost dead.

Ask your question in:

server: news.mozilla.org
mozilla.support.seamonkey

There's a lot of expertise there.

I never used Netscape 7.2 but it probably had it's bookmarks stored
in bookmarks.html. You can import this file in Seamonkey 2.10
'Manage Bookmarks' choose import HTML.

And you can export your Netscape adressbook in LDIF or CSV format and
import this file in Seamonkey 2.10
