automatic updatefirefox
Every day or so, Firefox tells me:
Update Available
A security and stability update for Firefox is available:
Firefox 5.0 Beta
It is strongly recommended that you apply this update for Firefox as soon as possible.
The only choices are "Ask Later" and "Update Firefox".
I don't think 5.0b is actually a stability update for 4.0.x. I probably got roped into this because I was testing FF4 betas, but now I'm on 4.0.x and perfectly happy. How do I get it to stop asking me?
Under the "Tools" menu, choose "Options," activate the "Advanced" section, then select the "Update" tab; you'll be presented with a myriad of options for disabling or controlling how the updates behave as shown in the screen shot I've included from Firefox v3.6.23 below for your convenience (it looks the same in Firefox v7.0.1, so I'm assuming it isn't any different in Firefox v6.anything).
What problems are you encountering with the update schedule, by the way?
net stop wuauserv
does not matter if it is running it won't be after this command completes.
When your script completes
net start wuauserv
