   Two reasons: Inertia ahd Fear of the Unknown. :-)   
   NS 7.1 was working just fine for me until recently and I was used to it.   
   It had all my bookmarks, addresses, e-mails received and sent etc.   
   I know I should be using SeaMonkey or Firefox and Thunderbird, but I am   
   unsure of how to do it and what will happen  to my Bookmarks, Addresses   
   and my Inbox and Sent e-mail messages.   
      
   If you can give me some detailed guidance, I'll give it a try.   
   The Devil is in the details.
