How do I automate the download of new versions (offline installer) of Firefox?
I need to transfer the full install package for each update to a network that does not have internet connections.
Is there a way that I can automate or simplify the download process for 6 offline installers (3 languages in 32 bit and 64 bit) for Windows?
I cannot use the automatic update feature since my target computers do not have an internet connection?

Hello, you want to transfer the off-line installers with a usb device ?
or you don't have access to the other computers at all (it is in a different place) ?
off line installer (full) is in the next link : https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
thank you
hi, you can also refer to the information at http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/latest/README.txt on how to get a static link that always downloads the latest release version of firefox in a certain language.
Both replies, so far, are helpful and are leading to a solution however what I need is a way to automatically check for new versions of the offline installer on a daily basis and automatically download any updates.
I've tested some FTP clients which did not work. I've tested a tool to download specific parts of web sites but it couldn't be easily automated. I'm looking at powershell scripts now.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
