I normally just do a rpm -Uvh to install upgrades. It works most of the time.
In the case of Mozilla, you will need to do something like rpm -Uvh *.rpm
(assuming the directory ONLY has the files needed to upgrade) so that the
dependencies can be resolved for the upgrade. Mozilla will require several rpms.
