During installation I chose no links to install because I am sorting my
startmenu differnt than Microsoft wants me to and I still had the link from
Firefox 0.92. Firefox put links on the desktop, startmenu and quicklaunch
anyway. Not too bad but a little "cosmetic" problem. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start installer
2.Choose Custom installation
3.Select a different directory
4.Select NO links to install (checkboxes off)
5.Install

Actual Results:  
Firefox put links in the startmenu, on the desktop and the quicklaunch.

Expected Results:  
Do what I told it to do: no links installing ;)

Mozilla is the best that could ever happen. Thank you!
