How can I update all user profile entries at once?
I test web applications with Firefox and use the -P (user) -no-remote options on the command line to keep the sessions independent. In other words, I have created many dozens of desktop shortcuts with specific users and within each instance of Firefox for each user, the default home page is set. This all works fine...I click on as many shortcuts as I want, they all open up different sites I'm testing, and they're all independent of each other.
The problem is when Firefox updates itself. It's annoying to have to answer the update question, and to be routed to the update page 50 times (the first time I use that shortcut after the update). This is also true for plug-ins.
So is there any way for me to prevent having the update messages appear in each separate user's first run after update?

You posted here with Firefox 9.0.1, is that the version you are using on that test PC?
If so, update to Firefox 10.0.1 and see the new (as of 10.0) first start after a program update routine. Mozilla changed the add-on compatibility check that kicks in when the Firefox version number has changed. It's probably going to make your issue worse, time wise, after a Firefox program update.
As far as updating all the Profiles at the same time, LastVersion data is kept in the compatibility.ini file in each Profile - LastVersion=10.0.1_20120208060813/20120208060813 - Firefox checks that file each time the Profile is used. When the version number currently being launched doesn't match the saved pref, it triggers the "updated" routine (but it works for the version used being older or newer than the pref).
The only thing I can think of is to run a batch file to update the LastVersion value change in all the Profiles that weren't used for receiving the Firefox update, to match the new LastVersion.
You can set the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref to ignore on the about:config page.
