Try rpm -qa | grep mozilla

Then maybe try rpm -e package-name, maybe trying one at at time.  If you
can't remove all of them for some reason due to dependencies, then maybe
at least that will get rid of most of them.

Unless this is something new or I didn't know about, never knew
package-* worked, as thought it needed to be the complete package name
(as in mozilla or mozilla-nss).
