About Firefox:
Mozilla Firefox is a free, open-source web browser for Windows, Linux, MacOS X and BeOS! It is fast and easy to use, and offers many advantages over other web browsers, such as tabbed browsing, built-in spell check and search engine integration and the ability to block pop-up windows. This page hosts "stable" builds a.k.a "releases".

The BeOS porting team of the Mozilla project is happy to announce the availability of our Firefox 2.0 port for BeOS-compatible systems. This build incorporates numerous BeOS-specific updates in addition to all the wonderful new features supported by Firefox 2.0. One of the biggest is the ability to use Firefox as a "semi-native" app. To run without the script, add the following lines to /boot/home/config/boot/UserSetupEnvironment
    export LIBRARY_PATH=%A/.:%A/components:$LIBRARY_PATH
    export ADDON_PATH=%A/.:%A/components:$ADDON_PATH
Installation is simple: extract the Firefox folder from the archive. Move the folder where you want it before you execute firefox-bin for the first time. If your environment includes the export statments above, you will be able to run firefox-bin directly, without the script, and set Firefox as the default handler for http links, https links and html file MIME-types. You might also want to rename firefox-bin to Firefox prior to first launch, to make it look nice in your Deskbar.

Security Note:
If you move Firefox or any of its components after the first execution, even just by dragging the folder to a new location, Firefox will stop working. On first execution, Firefox notes and records its environs, then stops working for security reasons if it sees subsequent changes.
