Excerpted from: [http://serverfault.com/questions/578981/how-do-i-whitelist-firefox-installations-from-my-cryptolocker-srp-gpo "How do I whitelist Firefox installations from my Cryptolocker SRP GPO?"]

:: I have the group policy to prevent crypto-locker and I needed to install FF on a single machine.

:: Here is the process:

::: Download "firefox setup stub.exe"
::: Move it somewhere other than downloads. I used c:\temp.
::: Open a command window (with admin privileges).
::: Type these commands: (c:\temp is used for this example)

::: set temp = c:\temp
::: set tmp = c:\temp
::: cd \temp

::: Run your firefox setup.

::: Worked like a charm for me.

This worked for me, too.

Now, I believe that if I set Firefox NOT to automatically update, it will not draw Cylance's ire.

Time will bell.
