The macro IsFirewallSvcRunning in Firefox's Windows installer script checks whether the MpsSvc service exists on the system and if not, falls back to the SharedAccess service. This check should have been dropped with the rest of the Windows XP support (bug 1130266) because the MpsSvc service is always available on Windows Vista and later, and the SharedAccess service no longer controls the firewall.
