Yea, I'd like to know why it is I'm forced to update the version to another Firefox version? I'll get a little box pop up saying there's a update version. I ignore it, but as time goes on, it forces an update. This will happen every month or 2. First of all, I hate that, & second, it always runs slower than the previous versions. No, it's got nothing to do w/clearing my cache, or anything like that, or my firewall, or security, cuz it's all good.

Hmmm...no solutions?? Why am I not surprised?

Will the force update of 24 april overrule the unchecked box of the automatic update preferences? I don't want to update version 3.6.28

If checking for updates is disabled then Firefox shouldn't update the current installation.
