Probably not since fire extinguishers and web browsers are two totally
different domains of activity.  See:

<URL: http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=al08nn.2.1>

 Word Mark               FIREFOX
 Goods and Services      IC 009. US 021 023 026 036 038. G & S:

    Browsers, namely, software for browsing and interacting with data on
    the global computer network and secure private networks, and
    software programs to connect computers to the global computer
    network and to secure private networks

vs, e.g.:

 Word Mark               FIREFOX
 Goods and Services      IC 009. US 021 023 026 036 038. G & S:

    vehicular fire suppression systems comprised of controllers, optical
    sensors, tanks for fire extinguishing compositions and high speed
    automatic nozzles, all sold as a unit.
