Firefox packaged in a self extractable zip is a security threat

As an IT organization we do not support FireFox.

Why?

1) its packaged in a self extracting zip (Which we block) - in order to prevent the transmission of malicious programs 2) We are unable to apply group policy to the browser, therefore we cannot set the home page, and other behaviors controlled by IT.
