Can you capture some more verbose output with "ssh -vvvX
<email address hidden> "firefox" and post the verbose debug here
(scrubbed if necessary)?

Additionally, when you launch a shell, can you make absolutely sure
that you're on the remote machine (compare the difference between
ifconfig on the local and remote machines and make sure those are
different).

Then, when you launch firefox, grab the output of "ps -ef | grep
firefox" on both the local and remote machine. You should see a
process called "/usr/lib/firefox-3.0b5/firefox" on the remote machine,
but no such on the local machine.
