Disable automatic updates

How can I prevent dropbox from automatically updating itself? The new dropbox 3 has a very anti-windows-7 UI that I don't like, so I reinstalled 2.10. How do I stop dropbox from continually install...

Nobody decides what gets installed on my computer but me. I have disabled the DropBox app until such time as this is made optional and at the users control. DropBox is a superb product but this is a step in the wrong direction.
