	the nut !

Whilst I have not seen any (although I haven't looked, sorry) I doubt
there are.

What you can do though, as with any application, is distribute locked
registry keys and configuration files for it. Documentation to do with
using firefox with multiple profiles in mutliuser environments is also
available and this is a good source for the start of such a project.

I have seen this done successfully (and properly) in a production
environment so I know it is possible. :-)
