Using stub installer, my personal firewall (norton firewall '03) asks me to
grant internet access privilege to the installer.
The name of the program, reported in the firewall window is "Netscape browser
setup" instead of something like "firefox browser setup".
I assume that some kind of internal name, in the installer, is still the
Netscape one.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install some personal firewall that asks for authorization to all outgoing
connections (like the ones mozilla stub installer does). Windows Firewall is not
the one you need: it allows by default all outgoing connections :)
2. Start stub installer and go through the install until the program downloads
the mozilla files from the server.
3. Notice the firewall window asking authorization
4. Read the program name, that should be "Netscape browser setup".
Product: Browser → Seamonkey

Old XPFE installer is dead now with the end of life for SeaMonkey 1.x, so this is not relevant any more in the SeaMonkey 2 world.
