    You can permanently make the Google Software update off by following the below set of commands,

    STEP 1: Open the Terminal window from Applications folder.

    STEP 2: Copy paste the command given below in the terminal and press Enter,
    ~/Library/Google/GoogleSoftwareUpdate/GoogleSoftwareUpdate.bundle/Contents/Resources/GoogleSoftwareUpdateAgent.app/Contents/Resources/install.py --uninstall

    STEP 3: Now again copy paste the below command and press Enter,
    sudo /Library/Google/GoogleSoftwareUpdate/GoogleSoftwareUpdate.bundle/Contents/Resources/GoogleSoftwareUpdateAgent.app/Contents/Resources/install.py --uninstall

    Hello friend,


    I have the solution for your problem just do as i say............

    1.Try to uninstall any of the Google plugin.

    2.So now you can uninstall the Google update.

    3.Or you open the Terminal box.

    4.There you type the command.
    '
    sudo /Library/Google/GoogleSoftwareUpdate/GoogleSoftwareUpdate.bundle/Contents/Resources/GoogleSoftwareUpdateAgent.app/Contents/Resources/install.py --uninstall'

    5.And you press Enter and the Google update will be uninstalled now.

    6.If you have 'Google Gear Plugin' try to uninstall it also.

    I hope by doing as i said you can solve your problem.

    All the best............
