But how do we hide the 'Updates' tab after it finds an update, but we choose not to update it?

Moxilla is working on a better way to notify the use of when an addon is installed.

I'm with Nighted. I'm looking for a way to disable the Add-Ons window from popping up when Firefox starts everytime after an add-on is installed or updates. Anybody have a solution?

Hey, that's a great tip but not what I was looking for.

I've tried searching but may be using the wrong terms. When installing or updating add-ons, the add-ons manager shows everytime when starting Firefox.

I really want to disable this very annoying feature. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!

^^ It might be a hardware problem. Ask your hardware guy to check it.

^^ Actually it finds the extensions list on mozilla site, thus spending your bandwidth if you are on limited net connection. So its better to disable this function if you don't need it. :)

Also sometimes this tab is automatically disabled, so this tutorial can also be used to get it back as I mentioned at last.
