SM 2.0.8 (now) on an MS W7 system.
How do I stop seamonkey "central" from automatically pushing updates to
my system?!
I do want to be able to: check if there are updates available
for my installed version of SM, and have the ability to then: select,
download, and at a time of my choosing install the downloaded updates.
Also I want to be able to read a description of what each of the
updates changes, especially in sms' behaviour, i.e. the user interface.

It was most disconcerting to have SM suddenly begin installing its'
2.0.6 -->  2.0.8 update, especially when the system popped up an alert
that the update may not have installed correctly and I could/should
retry the installation.

For SeaMonkey 2.0.x, go to the menu bar and select [Edit>  Preferences].
  On the Preferences window, select the + to the left of Advanced under
Category (left side of window).  Under Advanced, select Software
Installation.  On the Software Installation pane, uncheck the checkbox
for "Allow web sites to install extensions and updates".

Note that I also uncheck the checkbox for SeaMonkey under "Automatically
check for updates to".  Instead, I rely on notices in this newsgroup
regarding updates to SeaMonkey itself.

Thank you for the quick response.
I have now unchecked all three checkboxes in the Software Installation
section. Of course I won't see if it works as expected until the next
updates are released.
