How to disable download accelerator temporarily?

more options

NVIDIA says I should disable download accelerators before downloading a driver update. Mozilla says somewhere that it incorporates a download accelerator, but I can't find out where or how to temporarily download that accelerator. I have not experienced a problem yet because I am trying to follow NVIDIA's instructions.

There's no "download accelerator" built into Firefox.
