Hi Boris, thanks for your answer.

I first deinstalled them with pkg_delete and manually (rm -rf) removed 
the directries completely I then installed them from ports.  Everytime 
I get the message I check to see if there is any type of firefox 
running with ps -ax and now with top also.  I've seen this for several 
days now and have no idea why.

No, top shows nothing.  I just gave it yet another try after rebooting. 
  I am running only opera until I sort this out.  ps -ax|egrep fox 
shows nothing.  I can start bsd firefox and firefox-devel with no 
problems.

Thanks again,
