man jail(8)

A full jail is quite extreme, don't you think? Besides, it'd be tricky to allow
a jailed program to write to ~/.mozilla and /tmp.

Not really. well, it would be difficult to let it write to both ~/.mozilla and /tmp unless your homedir is under /tmp, what I would do is run mozilla under ~/mozilla and use that as the jail chroot. give it an internal IP and connect via X over IP if you want... or figure out how to put the named pipe unter ~/.mozilla (I'm not going to look it up for you, but there is a way... your jail system can't write outside the jail, but your non-jail system can write into the jail, so you might even be able to do it with a simple symlink.)

jail is the best sandbox FreeBSD has; if that's to heavy, simply run it setuid to another user that doesn't have permission to anything- it's not as good of a sandbox, but it's lightweight.
