Okay I think I've fixed it... so here is what I did in the finish

* I downloaded firefox-99.0.1.tar.bz2
* I extracted it on my desktop
* I opened Terminal and navigated to my desktop
* I then used Firefox to look at More Troubleshooting Information to see where 
my Firefox was installed
* I then used RSYNC -av to merge the new Firefox with the old and now I have 
99.0.1 with all my bookmarks/logins intact

Perhaps not the best way to do things but it works.

Now we'll see if I still get the update spam or not...

Title:
  Firefox update pushing me to update to 91.0.1 when I am on 91.0.2

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I am using Firefox on Ubuntu 16.04 and has been spamming me to update
  my browser for awhile now and thus I did so today to 91.0.2, only to
  discover the update spam continues telling me to update to 91.0.1 :/

  What can I say, why is pushing people to update to a previous version
  a thing?

  Please give me a patch that allows users like me to choose whether I
  want to update, OR NOT, and disable the update spam message that
  occurs multiple times a day!
