From this help file I know I can disable Google Software Update using:
$ defaults write com.google.Keystone.Agent checkInterval 0
Does this work for all accounts or just the current user account? I want to disable Google Software Update for the non-admin accounts that can't run it.
defaults
can also be used to modify property lists that affect other users, butdefaults write com.google.Keystone.Agent checkInterval 0
modifies~/Library/Preferences/com.google.Keystone.Agent.plist
, which only affects the current user.
