Hello,
the package firefox2 is inside the unstable cryptographic tree and there are no packages inside the stable tree [1]. You could check how you set up the Fink Commander inside the preferences panel, if it is using packages from the unstable and also from the unstable cryptographic tree. Also check how the setting for the trees of fink is set up inside its configuration file fink.conf on default installations in /sw/etc/. IMHO usually these setting should be the same, because Fink Commander reads the configuration file fink.conf like fink itself is reading it. Are your running two fink installations side by side?
