If you go to the "Custom Actions", you create an attached custom action
under "InstallExecuteSequence" -> "Install".

Select the custom action, and you will be able to set:

The source path (Firefox Setup 3.6.8.exe)
source type (executable)
Command line (-ms)

The trick is in the execution properties and the execution options parts
of the pane:
Execution Properties: Synchronous execution, check return code
Execution Options: deferred with no impersonation

That last one is necessary for the MSI to successfully install under
NT6.x with UAC active. Oh, you will also need to install a file
somewhere with the "Files and Folders" pane. Doesn't need to be anything
fancy, a blank text file will be fine.

Minimum requirements for creating such an MSI is the "Professional"
feature set.
