Yes, it's easy. Depending on how close to Mozilla your product is you may be
able to change just a few strings in a text config file.

It's not the best one for detailed help on this subject, try
netscape.public.mozilla.xpinstall (I've cross-posted and set followups there).

Directions on how to package Mozilla into an installer can be found at
http://www.mozilla.org/build/distribution.html which should give you some
starting point for modifications, especially if you're thinking more of a
re-branded Mozilla rather than an entirely different kind of thing. For the
latter you'll definitely need additional pointers.
