How to disable auto-update

Thanks. Yes I saw that. The cron is running against the tmp/cro fn file. I was looking into just commenting out the line with the firmware in it and leaviing the one that emails the logs. That seems to work. However it still gets rebuilt on reboot. It does not get rebuilt from either /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root or /rom/var/spool/cron/crontabs/root. It all gets corrected on a reboot. It looks like they are doing this in the /etc/init.d/boot file. They probably have a hidden slice that it is rebuilt from on reboot or embed it in a command. It could be a simple one line command embedded in an executable to put it in. I am going to look a bit further. Worse case I might just try blocking the internet connection for a few minutes and see if it retrys.
