We have no way to do uninstallation silently. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start <Firefox installed dir>\uninstaller\helper.exe with "-ms" option. Actual Results: An uninstallation wizard appears. Expected Results: Firefox is uninstalled silently. Old Netscape 7 uninstaller (NSUninst.exe) handled "-ms" option and silent uninstallation was available. For commercial use, we possibly need to uninstall Firefox (or Thunderbird) silently, but now we can't.
