Firefox 32.0.2 doesn't connect to the 'Net properly. I re-install an old version, but it keeps trying to download FF Ver 32.0.2. How do I make it stop that?

This is on a Windows 7 platform.

I'd just like to turn updates off, until the next (updated) version of Firefox is released. Right now, I can't connect to any websites any time the Version 32.0.2 installs. I can still re-run the Firefox Version 32.0 installer, and it makes accessing the web possible. But then, Version 32.0.2 automatically tries to update my browser, which I really don't need if it doesn't function properly.

hello, normally such issues are caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions. please remove all program rules for firefox from your firewall and let it detect the new version of the browser again.
