OS X 10.6.8 FF35.0 Prefs set for update inform but 35.0.1 downloaded automatically Why? How to abort?
I always have "Check for updates but let me choose whether to install them" selected in the Update preferences. FF35.0. still downloaded and began install 35.0.1 process automatically without permission.
This has happened occasionally in the past, but usually the manual process works properly. How can I abort the automatic process once the download is underway?

It is possible to close Firefox before the update is applied. Please make sure that updates are configured the way you want them to be: Configuration Options for Updates

As indicated in my original post, I have the "Check for updates but let me choose whether to install them" option selected in the FF Update preferences. And my Mac OS prefs are set to automatically request an administration password before a manual install, but this was by-passed by the auto-update.
The auto-update caught me by surprise -- I had several FF tabs on the go when the update process started, and by the time that I realized it was installing and not just downloading, the process was well underway.
