Oh? Where?

I go to about:preferences, and scroll down to Firefox Updates. Below that, it says "Keep Firefox up to date for the best performance, stability, and security." And then there's the version and a "What's new" link. No actual settings of any kind.

Based on tips found online, I've set app.update.auto=false, but that has had no effect.



On a standard Firefox install the preferences dialog has a radio button to choose between automatic installs and checking but not downloading until you choose.

WTF? Thought I had a "standard Firefox". Has Canonical been tampering with the builds?
