updates

[F16]

I need to have the automatic update prompts that appear every time I login disabled. They are annoying and unnecessary. I am not a big user so therefore do not need these constant almost weekly updates. They change my login screen if I update and that's a considerable annoyance because I have to reorganize my screen content again and again that includes all my menu bar data and bookmarks..regards,Ian

Firefox does update as often as weekly to fix security issues and similar. But we want those updates to be as painless as possible. You said:

Can you explain more about what's happening here? An update shouldn't scramble anything like this. What kind of "login screen" do you see?
