Mozilla firebird has plenty of features and works very fast, however if you want/need extra features try:
http://texturizer.net/firebird/extensions/ http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/ http://texturizer.net/firebird/themes/
You should find some interesting stuff there
I always grab the isntaller version, there are implemented installers for firebird, but they mainly stick to zip files.
Also to make your own profile, right click on the short cut you made, and go to property's,under target, add -p switch to it,
"x:\Program Files\Mozilla Firebird\MozillaFirebird.exe" -p
Then it will come up and you can either delete default or make a new one etc for you if you use multiple accounts.
If you don't then probably just using defaul will be fine.
I like using the nightly builds(updated often so you would have to check the ftp for a newer one)
A nightly build is just something the mozilla firebird team will test and add/change code and quickly build for you to test, however normally it is still usuable and not unstable. Things like themes wont be compatible with it, but most themes aren't compatible with mozilla firebird .7 anyway, there has been some great themes for version 6 that had dropped support on as well. However the default theme looks nice and there are still some good ones.

I'm running the latest and it's working pretty well btw.
Mozilla has plenty of features and mozilla firebird is in a word, "stripped down"
Still a great browser for not even being up to 1.0.
Email and the browser are seperate unlike mozilla, thunderbird and firebird.
Edit:
Take out the -p if you no longer want that profile screen to come up. However it will remain if you have it choose to every time.
