Anyone with NBEclipse that's connected to the same local network as a Netburner can download a malicious application on to the Netburner. I understand that there's a password hook for EnableAutoUpdate(), but is there another way to disable it, preferably through something on the hardware?

Your program can reject the updates...
see the features in the example: AutoUpdateFeatures...

You say "disable", so you could also just comment out the call to EnableAutoupdate() in your code. From that point you would have to have local access and do a serial update.
