hello redwick, essentially you'd have to set a system environment variable named "MOZ_CRASHREPORTER_DISABLE" with the value "1" in the windows control panel/system. for more information please refer to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad#Can_I_disable_Crash_Reporte...

You can probably also do this by changing the value of this DWORD registry key from 1 to 0:

  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reporter\SubmitCrashReport: DWORD value = 0
