Prevent automatic updates

Is it possible for an app (downloaded from the Android Market) to check whether it's set for Automatic Updates and, if so, disable that option?

I've looked at PackageManager and various associated package classes but can't find anything.

There's nothing nefarious about this - it's a niche app in beta testing and I've advised users to disable automatic updates for various reasons but I think some haven't done this and I'd like to force it for the beta phase of testing at least.

I came to the conclusion that it's actually the Android Market app which has the setting to allow automatic updates or not. I've left the question just in case anybody else is looking for a similar answer.
