I am running on a linux machine, with firefox installed in /opt (ie, not writable by the common user). How do I disable the constant 'do you want to upgrade' question that shows up (seemingly) every time I turn my head? I CANT upgrade it, I dont have permissions. It is almost (and getting closer all the time) enough to cause me to go back to chrome.
