99 is not a valid version and will result in failure.

Several of you replied with advice about "maxVersion" in the .rdf
file. Thank you, I should have mentioned that I checked this before
sending my original post. I have had maxVersion="99" for more than a
week now.
As I said, I now have one machine where the extension installs, and
one where it does not. Originally I thought there was a difference in
the Firefox version, but I was wrong. They are both at 3.0.4.
It would be great to know if there is a way to get something more
informative than "This extension is not compatible with Firefox
3.0.4." Otherwise I am just going to wipe everything clean on the
non-functioning machine and try again hoping there was some kind of
pilot error the first time.
I'd still like to know how I can prevent Firefox automatic updates
without permission.

Firefox 3.0.4 --please help
you'll have an install.rdf file in your extensio xpi. Search for
the string "maxversion" without quotes. this is the string that
decides the compatibility of your addon with the version of
firefox. If you are just testing you can bump it up to 300. But a
valid version can be pulled from
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/pages/appversions
