Copy your xulrunner folder into project. After set the properties for each files in the project as Build Action to content and Copy to Output Direcotry to Copy if newer or Copy always. Then build your application . When you publish after these steps your xulrunner will be deployed in output directory, so you can execute the ClickOnce application without any error.

You have downloaded external packages (DLLS) and used them in your project.
When you add reference to the DLLs, you should set the Copy local = true (unless they are in GAC or some other way)

This make sure when you build your project, all referenced DLLs will be copied to the build output folder.

Does all the dlls and files in your downloaded package are copied ? You need to know, If the builder only copies the referenced DLL, then you might want to publish the project with the DLLs included (or else it will fail in runtime when it will try to use a file that does not exist in folder).
