I have a devise that only works will FireFox version 22 and I install version 22 everyday because it keeps updating to version 30 now. I have it set to not update automatically and when I look at the settings after its been updated to 30 I notice that the settings are still set to not automatically update. I need version 22 set to stay on my computer without updating so I can use my devise without having to install version 22 everyday!

Hello, use the next code in a user.js file in your profile :

// turn off application updates: user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
