man gvfsd says:

 ENVIRONMENT
       GVFS_DISABLE_FUSE
           If this environment variable is set, gvfsd will not start the fuse filesystem.

So maybe something like

 GVFS_DISABLE_FUSE=1
 export GVFS_DISABLE_FUSE

might be of aid in your neutralization efforts.

Or perhaps simply:

 gconftool --type Boolean --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount false

If not, sorry, and my respects to Martha.
