Since the OP is running the Firefox downloaded from mozilla.org (as am I)
he's asking about how to disable the auto updates Mozilla.org provides.
I don't KNOW, but I remember digging into the "channel" mechanism a few
years ago, and vaguely recall there being a file or a setting (somewhere)
that you can use to control that. 

Possibly checking the mozilla knowledge base, or user fora would turn up
something.
