So its a script in /etc/network/ip-up.d? That would be run by the networking stuff and you don't want to play with that.

To disable the actual script, put an exit -1 in after the shebang before it actually does anything. By using -1, something that calls the script should log an error somewhere that you can then trace. Use exit 0 to just return 'success'.

I wouldn't tell you to "go and get a life". You've got a properly installed debian package that is spitting out unwanted net traffic. To me that's a big deal and worth a talk with the maintainer.
