You install the RPM from Rémi Collet's repository:
http://remi.collet.free.fr
http://remi.collet.free.fr/index.php?2007/03/20/324-firefox-2003-1
Make sure you also install the rebuilt versions of packages linked against 
Firefox (at least those you already have installed), there is a list in the 
blog post. Otherwise you'll get broken dependencies. Though the easiest way to 
get them is to just enable Rémi's repository altogether and yum upgrade or 
apt-get dist-upgrade. To enable the repository in apt-rpm, just add this 
to /etc/apt/sources.list (or to a file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/):
repomd http://remi.collet.free.fr/rpms fc6.i386 
(or .x86_64 for 64-bit, of course). For yum, get his remi-release RPM and 
enable the repository in /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo.
