Hi,

Not recommended, you should make firefox aware of this (if they are not
already). It may not be their program, but rather a nasty that is already on
your machine that uses this vulnerability. Before you do anything, ensure
this is not the cause.

Removal of the patch is not supported, but you might try reversing the
manual process described in the patch article:
