disable the bugging packagekit update applet fc9

In fedora core 9, the update software kit starts and works on its own and annoyingly refuses to stop. Hence, if not required here is a way to remove the update kit.

from here

1. Click System
2. Click Preferences
3. Click Personal
4. Click Sessions
5. This launches the Sessions Preferences window. On the Startup Programs tab scroll down the list to find PackageKit Update Applet.
6. Remove the checkbox next to it to disable PackageKit Update Applet.
7. Click Close.

helps stop it from bugging users from using yum or installing anything.
