opt out of updates
Each time I update Firefox something stops working on my system. Today is my outlook email. I still haven't figured out how to fix it. The process is maddening.
How can I opt of out Firefox updates so I don't waste a half day repairing things each time?
Thank you,

Security Issue: Update your Flash Player Version 19.0.0.245

Note: Windows users should download the ‘’’active_x’’’ for “Internet Explorer,”
and the ‘’’plugin’’’ for “Plugin-based browsers” (like Firefox).
Note: Edge on Win10 does not use ActiveX version but its own Flash.
