SeaMonkey 1.x still uses the same profile management files introduced by the Mozilla Suite and Netscape a decade ago.  
You only need two bits of data to reconnect your profile:
* Your profile's '''name'''.
* The '''base path''' to your profiles directory — but only, if you did change it manually when creating the profile!
This data is stored in a file called "registry.dat" (Windows), "appreg" (Unix) or "Application Registry" (Mac OS X); you should have just one instance per user of this file on your machine.
Now start SeaMonkey and choose "Tools → Switch Profile…" from the main menu. The "SeaMonkey Profile Manager" will pop open, listing all known profiles.
If your profile is listed, just select it in the list and click "Use Profile". SeaMonkey will start up with the last used profile, as long as you don't tell it differently on the commandline or in your shortcut — done!
If your profile is not listed, first click "Manage Profiles…", then "Create Profile…" to open the "Create Profile Wizard". Click "Next" to see the actual profile specification page.
