in your packages.xml if its already ran the command, you'll need to increment the revision by 1 for it to run again. my packages.xml for seamonkey is: <package id="seamonkey" name="Mozilla Seamonkey" revision="167" reboot="false" priority="10" execute="once"> <check type="file" condition="exists" path="%programfiles%\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe" /> <install cmd='"\\roark\wpkg\pkg\seamonkey-1.1.4.en-US.win32.installer.exe" -ma -ira' /> <!-- <install cmd='cmd /c del /s /q "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\mozilla.lnk' /> --> <install cmd='\\roark\wpkg\files\Set_Seamonkey_as_default.cmd' /> <upgrade cmd='"\\roark\wpkg\pkg\seamonkey-1.1.4.en-US.win32.installer.exe" -ma -ira' /> <upgrade cmd='\\roark\wpkg\files\Set_Seamonkey_as_default.cmd' /> <remove cmd='"%SYSTEMROOT%\SeaMonkeyUninstall.exe -ms"' /> </package> change the install/upgrade lines to what you need for firefox. notice the revision= statement?
