Bug Description

Binary package hint: plasma-netbook

After Manually installing Firefox 3.5 (not using kubuntu-firefox-installer), I notice that the icon is still in the applications > internet tab. After a reboot the Firefox icon is not in the applications> internet tab leaving only the installer. This might confuse new users into thinkin firefox is gone.

What should happen:
 kubuntu-firefox-installer should detect if the version it promotes is installed and then just show the Firefox icon, if not then just show the icon to install firefox.
