When Firefox installs an extension it unpacks your XPI within the user's
profile/extensions/<extensionID> directory. You cannot perform arbitrary
actions on install.

What does your installer executable need to do? If you really need to have a
binary installer, why not just have the user download and run it, instead of
packing it within an XPI file?
