Will you please stop sending me notices telling me that my version is out of date. I do not want you updates. I do not want you to monitor in any way my internet usage. I do not want your internet protection it is far to invasive. Please do not send me anymore requests to update my copy of mozilla Firefox. Geoffrey A Hardy

Are those notices from the browser, or from websites?

Websites: Nothing can be done as it's a website issue.

Browser: Type about:preferences#advanced<enter> in the address bar. Under Advanced, Select Update.

[v56+]; Type about:preferences#general<enter> in the address bar. Select Update.

Check the settings. "Do Not Check For Updates."

Also turn off Use a background service to install updates <Windows Only>
