10.4: Prevent 10.4.7 from checking for Widget updates
Authored by: unforeseen:X11 on Jul 09, '06 12:29:59PM
There are two problems with this hint (despite the fact that this checking is negligible in terms of network-traffic):
  • You either have to turn off the init.d - process (if you upgraded from 10.3 or earlier) or the launchd - child (if you did a fresh install of 10.4); there's no need to do both edits.
  • The launchd - child can be turned off much more convenient, as wgscott already posted:
    sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.dashboard.advisory.fetch.plist

this is not the sig you`re looking for.
