When installing Firefox and unchecking "Create start menu entries" there is
still a start menu folder created for Firefox, though the entries aren't. The
installer has done this under previous Firefox releases so it's not a new
problem. The folder can be deleted of course, but it really shouldn't be created
if there are no shortcuts created in it.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Firefox but choose to not create a start menu entry
2. When installation is doe, check the start menu
3.

Actual Results:  
There was an empty Mozilla Firefox folder created

Expected Results:  
No folder should be created if it's going to be empty
