/etc/apt/preferences looks like this:

Package: firefox
Pin: version 3.*
Pin-Priority: -100


apt-cache policy firefox

gives me:

firefox:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 3.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.3
  Package pin: 3.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.3
  Version table:
     3.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.3 -100
        500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com hardy-updates/main Packages
        500 http://security.ubuntu.com hardy-security/main Packages
     3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 -100
        500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages

Doesn't look quite right to me. Besides firefox-2 is installed. Isn't listed 
as installed since it's not really another version but a different package, I 
take it.
Still, how about ff3?
