How can I stop Firefox update from wiping out my search settings in chromeappsstore.sqlite

I *don't* want Google as my about:start page default search engine! Every time Firefox Updates itself, chromeappsstore.sqlite gets reset back to Google. How can I stop Firefox Update from trashing the changes I've made to chromeappsstore.sqlite?

I meant, "about:home" not "about:start"

You can try to set the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref to ignore on the about:config page.

Thanks cor-el for the quick response! The change has been made and I'm looking forward to checking out the aftermath from the next update.
