not having mozilla shouln'd be a problem, it installs correctly, correct? are you running it by typing firefox in a terminal window, or by clicking on some assorted summin or another, also try becoming a su and running it...

Firefox is independent from mozilla, so thats not the problem. Do try running it in terminal and as su, alot of times icons won't work right because of incorrect paths.
Also, GUI installers do not work as well as command-line. Maybe you should try installing from a *.bin.
