I have in fact got the same problem when I try to run Firefox directly, after 
the installation: 
 
ernst@zaphod:~/Mozilla Firefox 1.0> ./firefox 
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server 
Xlib: XDM authorization key matches an existing client! 
 
(firefox-bin:25884): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: 
ernst@zaphod:~/Mozilla Firefox 1.0> echo $DISPLAY 
:0.0 
 
Note that I'm not running Mozilla at the moment.
