lockprefs for firefox 6 mac
we need as a university to lock some prefs on lab machines have made the following files in /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/ firefox.cfg
// Keywords are case sensitive - get them wrong and firefox // will whinge about a config error and not load. // // pref : user can override for current session // defaultPref : user can override permanently // lockPref : user can't change // set home page - this doesn't work very well as a default so // we use ./browserconfig.properties to set instead //defaultPref("browser.startup.page", 1); //defaultPref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://ourhomepage/"); // disable firefox welcome page on 1st run or upgrades lockPref("browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone", "ignore"); // tabs defaultPref("browser.tabs.warnOnClose", false); defaultPref("browser.tabs.autoHide", false) // downloads defaultPref("browser.download.useDownloadDir", false); // disable the proxy settings lockPref("network.proxy.type", 0); // security lockPref("xpinstall.whitelist.required", true); // cache size lockPref("browser.cache.disk.capacity", 5000); // flush cache on exit lockPref("privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown", true); lockPref("privacy.sanitize.promptOnSanitize", false); lockPref("privacy.item.cache", true); pref("privacy.item.history", false); pref("privacy.item.downloads", false); pref("privacy.item.formdata", false); pref("privacy.item.cookies", false); pref("privacy.item.passwords", false); pref("privacy.item.sessions", false); // disable updates lockPref("app.update.enabled", false); lockPref("extensions.update.enabled", false); lockPref("browser.search.update", false); // disable anti-phishing/malware (NH20101103) // workaround the crap google database download // that creams the nfs homespace server lockPref("browser.safebrowsing.enabled", false); lockPref("browser.safebrowsing.malware.enabled", false);

If it isn't working then place the file _config.js in the default/prefs folder where you also find channel-prefs.js
