Severity: normal → critical
Keywords: crash
the UTF warnings were fixed as part of bug 280740.  can you try a more recent
(trunk) build?
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk
firefox-1.0+.en-US.linux-i686.installer.tar.gz
is OK

firefox-1.0.3.installer.tar.gz still complains, but installs properly and works.
excellent.
