User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:17.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/17.0 Build ID: 20130107124423 Steps to reproduce: I've installed many versions of the ESR channel of Firefox, the latest being 17.0.2esr Actual results: The registry entries created under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall do not indicate that I installed the esr version. There is no way that I know of to tell from these keys that you installed an ESR release. Expected results: Either the DisplayName or DisplayVersion registry keys should contain the string ESR so that the channel can be easily identified, primarily for desktop software management purposes.

btw: The keys are generated by the installer and a zip build doesn't set those values
