<offtopic>no one with any sense uses the first and last letters to shortern a word, i suppose you call neowin 'nn' for short? :p</offtopic>
I agree with you. Natural inclination to abbreviate a compound word like that is to use the start of both sub-words. However, straight from the Mozilla site:
8. How do I capitalize Firefox? How do I abbreviate it?

Only the first letter is capitalized (so it's Firefox, not FireFox.) The preferred abbreviation is "Fx" or "fx".

(it should be noted that I could not find this information beyond version 1.5 of Firefox, so I suppose you could take the FAQ item as 'depreciated' and abbreviate it in the more sensible "FF" fashion, whilest disregarding the jeers and taunts of the "Fx" 1337.
