hello
We need a firefox developer for the following freelance project.
Need to modify the firefox installer to add custom install setting.
The following modifications are needed
-------------------------------------------------------
pre set our homepage as default homepage
pre install some bookmarks (if possible)
add a firefox a search plugin and set it it as default (if possible I would also like to change the http refferer of the search results page to a web hosted page)
pre package and auto install an extension.
(the user control prompt "allow this installation" should not appear for the pre installed extension. And not for its upgeade.)
The installer should install global extensionsm, update an existing installation and not override a preexisting profile, just update it with the new settings and extensions
The installer should be none silent
(if any of these cant be done within the installer configuration, we would consider making a patch to the installer build for those modifications)
Here are some threads that I found that discuss our requirements.

I am interested in working with you on this project. I have experience with NSIS and Firefox, having developed multiple extensions before. Could you please PM me more details about this project, such as what bookmarks, extensions and other modifications must be added? Thanks in advance!
I am an experienced software packager. I work with tools like Installshield, Wise and others. I can package Firefox with your custom settings in a new installer.
