To protect my organisation from threats such as CryptoLocker I've set our anti-virus software to block files from executing if they are located in either the user's Downloads folder or the Temp locations. So far the only application that has been negatively impacted by this change is the Firefox auto-update client. Is it possible to set the location where the partial/full updates are downloaded anywhere in the Firefox configuration?
