Works for me with Firefox 2.0.0.14 and Firefox 3 Beta 5.

Ron: can you try again to download Firefox 2.0.0.14 from
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html ?

If you can't mount a dmg file, it's either an issue with /System/Library/CoreServices/Installer or a corruption of the image during its transfer. It could also be a bad image/error in checksum available on a Mozilla server. I found no other report of issue with FF2.0.7 in past bugs.
Have you solved that problem ?

No reply, INCOMPLETE. Please reply if you can still reproduce this bug with Firefox 3.5.3 or later in a new profile with the latest plugins (flash, quicktime, java, etc.).
