Adobe Air runtime auto-update

Adobe Air runtime auto-updates itself without any notification or request on my Mac OSX 10.6.7 machine. I do not like this behavior. Is there any way to change it?

Please see our Disable automatic updates of the runtime document.  However, please be aware that our updates include both new functionality and bug and security fixes.  I'd definitely recommend keeping an eye out for future releases and manually installing if you disable the updates.

Thanks,

Chris

Thanks Chris, that solves the problem. Except where to get notification of when new Air runtimes are available. Personally, I think a better behavior would be a pop-up informing the user of the availability of an update and asking if he wants to then download and install. Some of us out in the sticks are still on metered internet access, and automatic downloads are unwelcome.
