I installed FF 28. During the installation, I disabled the suto-updater. At first run, I dsiabled it AGAIN in the config. And still, it auto-updated to 30.

So, I uninstalled and reinstalled 28. And AGAIN it's updated automatically.

I don't care about ESR. I don't want to update to the new graphical style. I don't care if 28 has exploits. EVERY PROGRAM HAS HOLES AND CAN BE EXPLOITED!

So, I'd be grateful if anyone could explain to me why the program updated even after I set it to NOT do it. Twice.

Please do the following

Go to your "Options" then under "Advance" tab you will find at the top a tab "Update" there you will find all the options.

If you turn it off there and it doesn't want to work then i suggest looking for viruses.
