The new Firefox update is incredibly slow for me. I'm getting 1 second of movement followed by a 3 second or so freeze up no matter what I'm doing. I don't care enough about the update to try and figure out why; I just want to be able to stick with 56.0.2, which runs reliably well. I went into options and checked "never check for updates". Still, every time I start Firefox it automatically installs the update. How can I make it stop?

Go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Help ? --> Troubleshooting Information Page and take a look in the Accessibility section if accessibility is set to "true" there. if yes, go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser. Restart Firefox

You can not it is a forced update.

Going back : unfortunately 56.0.2 and below is no longer safe to use for every day use do to secuity issues, but 52.5.0 ESR is. It will continue to get security updates until May 2018, and you can download and install it from this page: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all/ Note : Legacy Extensions will be deleted or removed in any version update after May 2018.

You should make a backup of your Profile before going back and just because: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles
