After Firefox has been dragged into the Applications folder you can eject the disk image by selecting it in a Finder window and pressing the command+e keys or by using the Finder's File menu, and selecting Eject as shown below. If you find that the Firefox disk image will not eject, it is probably because of a Leopard bug, that prevents disk ejection, after you've copied files from one drive to another. Ejecting the disk via the Disk Utility should still work.

When you first start up Firefox, it will not be your default browser and you'll be told about that. That means that when you open a link in your mail application, an Internet shortcut, or HTML document, it will not open in Firefox. If you want Firefox to do the above, click Yes to set it as your default browser. If not or you are just trying out Firefox, click No.
