Never had a problem with the Firefox icon in FC3 by following Thomas 
Chung's instructions. BTW, you can also build/install the rpms for 
DeerPark (Firefox 1.1), Thunderbird 1.0.5 & 1.06 using the same method 
;-) I always uninstall Firefox after building the new rpm using, "rpm -e 
firefox" This leaves all users on the system Firefox profiles intact. 
Now, when you install the new Firefox rpm, the only difference seen, is 
the new version, when you click on help/about Firefox :-)
