We have installed firefox on our terminal servers. but currently it is set for auto updates. We need to disable auto updates on a server level so that we have consitancy of version across the board. The solutions I've searched via Google all are solutions for Firefox 2.x but now version 9.0 is out the same methodolgy doesn't apply.

Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values.

Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg. 

pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift

See:

You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg: 

defaultPref();  // set new default value
pref();         // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref();     // lock pref, disallow changes

lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);
