want to disable automatic updates

Firefox just did an automatic update after I had told it that I wanted to review all updates before they were done. How do I get back to that page again? How do I make sure that I get to approve all updates before they are done?

If you are using the "Ask me what I want to do" and you miss the Update Available notification, that window will time out pretty quickly and install the update without waiting for you to reply. You are better off un-checking Firefox at the top of that dialog so that Firefox doesn't even check for program updates.

Thank you. Now I remember. I did have the right box checked, but it automatically updated Firefox anyway so I do not understand that :(

Thank you very much - I didn't know that - I have gone in and unchecked the box.
