http://www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#howusemozilla

Since the FAQ was written: Firefox 3 and later ships with a XULRunner instance -- https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XULRunner

I propose appending the following text to the FAQ entry:


* Firefox 3 and later ship with a private XULRunner package. Separate installation of XULRunner is no longer necessary, provided you <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#specifyxulrunner">specify the location of XULRunner</a> to be the Firefox installation directory. Example: <tt>eclipse.exe -vmargs -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath="c:\program files\mozilla firefox"</tt>

Mozilla support is removed in 4.8.
