Here's what I do for Mozilla. This is part of my userprep script which
runs right before icewm starts. Forgive any poor line wrapping.

###############################################################################
# install mozilla
###############################################################################
    if [ ! -d "$HOME/.mozilla" ]; then
        cd $HOME
        # create mozilla profile ($HOME/.mozilla)
        mozilla -CreateProfile default
        MOZDIR=`ls $HOME/.mozilla/default`
        cp /ltsp/etc/mozilla/* "$HOME/.mozilla/default/$MOZDIR/"
        perl -pi -e "s/golden/$USER/g;"
"$HOME/.mozilla/default/$MOZDIR/prefs.js"
        # create cache directory
        mkdir "$HOME/.mozilla/default/cache"
        #xmessage "Web browser installation: COMPLETE" &
    fi
