Hi Timo,

We prefer to keep vendor native source files wherever possible if they will 
install silently without user interaction. That is why we use the native 
executable to install Firefox... Repackaging seems an unnecessary extra step.

We then have a post-install scrip that set up the autoconfig to disable 
automatic updates, etc.

Thanks,

Could you elaborate a bit that last point? Is msi somehow slower in your 
environment than exe? Or did you just mean that you don't need to repackage it?

Do you add or change any prefs in FF using that (like disable autoupdate)?
