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.
