Bingo, the 132 did it. I'm going to make a few changes to the INF, and I'll post it here in a bit.

The nice thing about the way I've got it set up is that it's very easy to update when new versions come out. All the user will have to do is edit the string(s) at the bottom and they're done.

Alright, check this out. I made it more customizable, so you can now specify independent versions and locales. The INF called be called in a few different ways:

Both Firefox & Thunderbird Installed

rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 "path\to\mozilla.inf"

Only Firefox Installed

rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection Firefox 132 "path\to\mozilla.inf"

Only Thunderbird Installed

rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection Thunderbird 132 "path\to\mozilla.inf"

The INF has a [Strings] section which can be customized as newer versions are released or if users want to specify a locale other than US English. The string names should be pretty self-explanatory.

[Strings]
;DO NOT EDIT THESE STRINGS
Clients="SOFTWARE\Clients"
MozKey="SOFTWARE\Mozilla"
Firefox="Mozilla Firefox"
Thunderbird="Mozilla Thunderbird"

;EDIT THESE AS NEEDED
FxLocale="(en-US)"
FxVersion="1.0"
GeckoVersion="1.0.1"
MozVersion="1.7.5"
TbLocale="(en)"
TbVersion="0.9"

Now who wants to confirm that this all works as it's supposed to? prathapml, I'm looking your way

Hey, the prev INF by you worked fine, when I removed the quotes. Once I get home, I'll test the second one with that 132 stuff.

Yeah, this one's just a bit cleaned up and more flexible than the last one.

EDIT: I just upped a newer version which allows the user to change the Mozilla Version and Gecko Version numbers.

The quotes around the path_to_file :

"%ProgramFiles%\any\any.inf"
         -becomes-
%ProgramFiles%\any\any.inf

@RyanVM
Okay, I'll test the 2nd INF. BTW, there were a few additions to be made to the INF, and a few corrections to be done to the <Add to start-menu> part. Do come on IM to clear those out.

[prathapml]

mmmm....... (I'm not complaining, just notifying what needed to be changed)
some comments were needed, and then the protocols section was located in the wrong place (in both the 1`st and 2nd INF). Here's the corrected version. And also, the .reg below needs to be added to the INF!

MOZ-Missed out.reg:
(please add these keys as well, to the corrected INF that I've attached.)

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Mozilla Thunderbird\InstallInfo]
"IconsVisible"=dword:00000000
"ReinstallCommand"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla\\Thunderbird\\thunderbird.exe\" -silent -nosplash -setDefaultMail"

Thanks for your efforts - this one's gotta be the simplest way to install Moz ff/tb.

And then, Could you make an INF of the Opera code that I've posted above as well?
