User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

I've installed Firefox versions 1.0, 1.0.1 and 1.0.2
Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel has all 3 versions listed.
I know there's only one version installed, but the friends I support
are calling me, concerned by the extra entries.

New versions of Firefox should either clean up Add/Remove Programs entries
or eliminate the version number from thise entries.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In Windows 2000, open control panel
2. Choose Add/Remove Programs
3. See the additional Firefix entries

Actual Results:  
There are 3 entries for Firefox

Expected Results:  
There should only be one entry, stating either
"Mozilla Firefox version x.x.x"
or just
"Mozilla Firefox"
