When I install Firefox and it finished I get the window to drag the application into my applications folder. after it copies I close the window and drag the installer to the trash. when I open Firefox browser however the installer ends up back on my desktop. Ive even uninstalled Firefox because of this... so I thought and the installer still randomly pops back up on my desktop. How do I end this annoyance?

Did you try to remove the installer from the Trash (i.e. remove it permanently) ?

Make sure Firefox gets installed properly.

Open the Firefox Disk Image file and drag the Firefox application to the Applications folder on your hard drive. You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the Disk Image, but instead drag it out of the DMG folder.
