The installer is not actually a native Mozilla component, it's maintained by an 
outside contributor.

But this bug has been fixed.

Here is the text of a post from the creator of the installer:

1) The installer fails to install because of an error
that it can't find unzip.exe. Thats because for some unknown
reason it doesn't create the temp dir in the bootdrive. I've
just fixed that and emailed Henry the update.

Thanks for opening the bug!
