I would like to disable the firefox software updater request window that pops up each time i restart firefox

I would prefer to not upgrade to FF 30.
However, everytime i open firefox I get a popup from Firefox Software Updater asking if I want to allow the following program to make changes to my computer.
I keep accidently hitting yes, and countless times now have had to revert back as it keeps updating me to FF30
Is there a way to disable Firefox Software Updater altogether? The origin of this updater it says is from my hard drive.
Have already selected NEVER CHECK FOR UPDATES for updates under tools..options, but doesnt seem to matter.
THANKS KINDLY FOR ANY HELP!

Hello junk51374, for your 28.0 use the next code in a user.js file in your profile :
// turn off application updates:
user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file
(probably you have it that way in about:config but the important is the user.js file, firefox first read from user.js file)
'''Note that Firefox 28 is no longer secure. If you don't want to use the new design you can revert it'''. see:

thank you
