As we know Firefox has an invasive agent that sends your default browser information every 24 hours, I have deleted the agent and scheduled task yet firefox keeps reinstalling it. How do I keep it deleted and stop firefox from setting up more tasks in the scheduler?

Thanks in advance.

I've opted out, thats not the issue. The issue is that i've deleted the task + the agent that puts it there yet it keeps reinstalling itself over and over and I want to prevent this.
