Building Firefox MSI with Root CAs, ntlm settings, and Add-ons disabled
I need to build a Firefox MSI that has one Root CA automatically installed, some NTLM settings configured, and Add-ons disabled by default with users unable to turn it back on.
I know that Add-ons can be disabled with Firefox running in safe mode. I know how to add the Root CAs and I believe I can change the NTLM settings while monitoring with EMCO (an MSI builder) without issue. Otherwise I know that I can create a config file for the NTLM settings.
However, I am very stumped with how I would configure the Root CA to automatically be a trusted root. I am going to try monitoring while I add change all of these settings, but I am concerned that the package that I build will not be complete.
I am completely stumped about how to turn off Add-ons. If it is an about:config setting, is there a way to lock down about:config?
Thank you very much for the help guys, I'm always impressed at the level of intelligence found throughout the Mozilla forums.

hello, you can disable the possibility to install addons with the method described at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences and this line in the configuration file:
lockPref("xpinstall.enabled", false);
Awesome. Thank you! Do you know how any way to automatically import a trusted certificate?
