How can I prevent Firefox from suggesting updates for a certain add-on?

One of the extensions I use has relaesed a new version that contains changes that I do not want. I would like to keep the old, previous version. The add-on update check in Firefox however enables the "include this update" checkbox every time it checks for updates. Is there a way to selectively disable updates for this add-on permanently?

The process is not straightforward, for details see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Updating_add-ons#Disabling_update_checks_for_individual_add-ons_-_Advanced_users

This will be far easier in Firefox 4, it will have the option to disable updates for individual add-ons from inside the add-ons manager.
