How do I stop getting prompted about setting up or choosing a persona?

I am setting up a computer system for my parents. They have very little experience of using computers, so I want everything to be as simple and predictable as possible. I want it to work (more or less) the same every time they switch it on. Things like these occasional prompts from Firefox to set up or choose a persona will only worry them, or make them wonder what to do.

So, how do I stop them ever getting prompted about setting up or choosing a persona?

If you click a link or image to wear a persona then Firefox will install that persona or prompt to install it.

Previewing only work for pages that are white listed as an allow exception for software installation. So you can remove the www.getpersonas.com site.
