There was a warning from Aleksej Bobylev in the forum two months ago 
concerning firefox updates:
 forum.slitaz.org/topic/dont-update-your-firefox

I strongly recommend not to update software, that is installed as a SliTaz 
package in any other way than with the SliTaz package manager!

sorry, firefox-official sometimes updates automatically (after opening), 
although I'm sure I have turned off auto updates.

To avoid searching for updates by firefox, a file
/opt/mozilla/firefox/distribution/policies.json
can be created, containing

{
"policies":
{
"DisableAppUpdate":true
}
}

Thank you. I already break the updater /opt/mozilla/firefox# mv updater 
updater.old

But I'll try your way.
