I run wpkg as system
and use this package definition:

<package id="setffasdefault" name="Set FireFox as Default Browser"
         revision="1" priority="11" reboot="false" execute="once">
                <install cmd="%WpkgRoot%\Tools\Set_FF_as_default.cmd" />
                <upgrade cmd="%WpkgRoot%\Tools\Set_FF_as_default.cmd" />
                <remove cmd="%WpkgRoot%\Tools\Set_IE_as_default.cmd" />
        </package>


this create a default profile in  C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application
Data\Mozilla
if that is a concern you could have:

rmdir /S /Q "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\Mozilla"

in Set_FF_as_default.cmd

----------------------Set_FF_as_default.cmd-------------------------
copy /Y %Wpkgroot%\Files\nsBrowserContentHandler.js "%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\components"
"%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -CreateProfile default
"%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -setDefaultBrowser -silent
rmdir /S /Q "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles"





-----------------------Set_IE_as_default.cmd------------------------
shmgrate.exe OCInstallReinstallIE
