But I've had inconsistent results. Is this the best method?

After you run the above icacls command, does the expected "users" ACE
show up in the permissions tab of the "Mozilla Firefox" directory
properties?  If not, then you might give setacl.exe
(http://helgeklein.com/setacl/examples/managing-file-system-permissions-with-setacl-exe/)
a try to see if you get the ACE you expect.

I think sometimes it does show up and work, but on some machines it does not. I haven't found a pattern yet. I'll download and try the setacl program. Thanks for that suggestion.

Once the users group has full control of the firefox directory (either
from running icacls, setacl, or manually setting the permissions) does
the self-update work correctly?

Yes. Once I see the correct settings in the security properties, it works.
