Thanks Stefan- I found a post on Gmane - used a snippet of code from that
thread - it works now.
Here is the code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<package id="firefox" name="Mozilla Firefox" revision="%PKG_VER%"
reboot="false" priority="100">
<!-- higher priority is used to install before Java and Flash
Player without defining a dependency, since Firefox doesn't really depend on
them -->
<!-- set version variables -->
<variable name="PKG_VER" value="10.0.3"/>
<variable name="PKG_EXE_VER" value="10.0.3.4451"/>

<variable name="PKG_DEST" value="%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Mozilla

<variable name="PKG_LNG" value="en-us"/>
<!-- Set Software Install Dir/Repository -->
<variable name="SOFTWARE" value="\\server\software\Firefox\v10\" />

<check type="file" condition="versiongreaterorequal"

<install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\Firefox Setup 10.0.3esr.exe" /S' />
<!--
<install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\Firefox Setup %PKG_VER% %PKG_LNG%.exe" /S' />
<upgrade cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\Firefox Setup 10.0.3esr.exe" -ms' />
<upgrade include="install" />
<remove cmd='"%PKG_DEST%\uninstall\helper.exe" /s' />
<remove cmd="%ComSpec% /c ping -n 11 localhost" />
-->
</package>
<!-- If you like to remove the previous version on upgrade you can change
the
upgrade commands as below for the package above.
<upgrade include="remove" />
<upgrade include="install" />
-->
