The fact that firefox updates when I open it instead of when I close it. Has to be the most annoying feature ever. (lemy.lol)

I mean like why? Just open and update when I'm done that's what every other browser does. Stop making me wait to use the Internet firefox!

I imagine for security best practices, software prefers update on open (if not update on checking a central update server regularly like yum -whatever update), but for user convenience this would be better for so many things.
