Check for updates disabled
When using your MSI installer for FireFox 3 and 3.0.1 I notice that the Check for updates function is grayed out and can't be used. Is there a reason that this is disabled in your MSI package? thanks...

Hum... I need to look in that. The old thinking was that the update would overwrite the MSI managed files.

Is there a way to change that in your MSI? After installing when looking in the About:Config is shows that entry as locked so I can't change it on my machine. thanks..

Make your own .msi to get around this problem and other goofy settings:

but if you activate automatic updates doesn't FM Firefox get overwritten? will you still have all the functionalities?

You can now push out the setting to enable and it will override the default.
