Actual Results:  
./firefox-installer-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5:

Expected Results:  
installed firefox 

fedora3 use 'libstdc++.so.6' so I guess the problem is that there is no 
firefos-installer for fedora3
you need to compat-libstdc++ package.
needing libstdc++5 is documented on the .mozilla.org website.
