[Mozilla Enterprise] Profile Update Intervals

[Mike Kaply]

You could set the prefs:

browser.safebrowsing.provider.google4.lastupdatetime
browser.safebrowsing.provider.mozilla.lastupdatetime

browser.safebrowsing.provider.google4.nextupdatetime
browser.safebrowsing.provider.mozilla.nextupdatetime

To a few minutes in the future. They are set base on Unix epochs.
