I am using Mac Os X 10.5.8 and the latest versions of Sea Monkey and Firefox. Sea Monkey crashed while trying to access a conference. Now Sea Monkey crashes every time I try to open it as does Firefox.

I suspect there is a corrupt preference file that both are trying to access but I can't find it. I've looked at some online places that suggest various plist files in the Library/preferences folder but there is nothing there under mozilla or firefox type names or one called com.apple.internetconfig.plist that was also suggested.

I have found the relevant preference files in users/ steverogerson/library/preferences and removed them but both applications are still crashing on start up.

I don't know if this helps, but the browser windows in both Firefox and Sea Monkey seem to try to access something called "about: sessionstore" (I may be wrong a bit as it is so quick before it crashes) before the crash.

Yay, solved it. Dances. The conference I was trying to access installed a plugin called WebEx.plugin. I removed this and both now work fine.

See:

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile

If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

As you can see cor-el, I'd already solved it but thank you for posting.
