    I use a website capture addon called Abduction it tuns the selected part of the webpage into a jpeg

    But if has not been supported by Firefox for a year or so, but their is an hacked version that works, but Firefox keeps updating the Abduction addon to the latest non-working version.

    Does anybody know how to disable Firefox plugin updates, just for the Abduction addon would be amazing.

    It`s a good plugin have a look.

    Below is the modded plugin, that works with the latest Firefox Version.

    I have used that menu before, but it must have been a while ago.
