I don't miss the SeaMonkey web browser so much, but kind of liked the mail client. Is it even possible to have both mozilla products available at the same time (technosaurus seemed to indicate it is not)?
Suggest you download and try Knoppix_V6.4.3CD*.iso.As a new puppy user I'm frustrated by how easy it is to 'break' things and not know how to restore them. The initial install from CD went very smoothly. I'm about ready to try to figure out how to uninstall/reinstall the whole mess and start over. Please be patient with this old Windows user trying to find his way through Puppy.

(unless you know German, get the _en rather than the _de version - I downloaded from Kernel.org).
It booted up without much of a problem on my main system. it took me a few minutes only to adjusted the display settings, instead of the near half hour (for an inferior fit) with Wary5.
I got the DVD version, which was a three hour download. You might want to try the CD version first. If it works, the DVD version has a huge selection of apps, including several browsers to try. So even if you don't use it regularly, it's a great reference tool.
Knoppix even booted on my old Compaq 500Mhz Celeron, with 768MB of RAM, and even got the LCD monitor right right off the bat. Wary just gave me a kernel panic message and died. But I have to admit, trying to run Gimp was more than the old compaq could handle.
It booted fine on the newer Laptop with 4GB of RAM too, but couldn't manage to go online. Actually the first time that autoconfig function has failed in my experience with a dozen or so Knoppix discs.
