Hi I've installed CentOs 6 successfully, but, Firefox does't lunch. I've downloaded Chrome and when I try to execute "google-chrome &" command, I had command not found.

you seem to have a ... divergence between subject and body of this email. if you want firefox to work, I'm sure people would be interested in helping, but need more info than 'doesn't launch'. as far as google not working, I suspect you have a path issue (and there might be other things after you fix this), but a decent first step would be to either change your path (edit .bashrc [assuming you use bash] and add export PATH=$PATH:/opt/google/chrome) or just use the full path to the binary from the command line: /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome
at least that's where my version of chrome was installed. you might have to use find (find /suspect-path -name "google-chrome" -ls where suspect-path is a directory on your machine, I wouldn't suggest searching from / all the way down; perhaps /usr or /opt)

Chrome is not part of CentOS at all (it is available and works if installed from the google repo) ... and firefox may not have been installed, depending on the install that you did.
For Firefox .... try this as root:
yum install firefox
For Chrome ... add this text as chrome.repo to your /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory:
[google-chrome] name=google-chrome baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/x86_64 enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 priority=1
(substitute i386 for x86_64 if required)
then install chrome with:
yum install google-chrome-stable

Google doesn't understand the concept of code getting past beta test versions.
