I downloaded Firefox 8 for Mac OS 10. I transferred it to the Applications folder, put it in the dock. It opens fine but I can't get rid of the download icon. Everytime I open Firefox it comes back.

Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.
Open the DMG file and drag the Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.
You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.
