add_filter('option_update_plugins', 'plugin_no_upgrade');
function plugin_no_upgrade($option){
	$this_plugin = plugin_basename(__FILE__); //eg:  
'nextgen-gallery/nggallery.php'
	if( isset($option->response[ $this_plugin ]) ){
		//Clear its download link:
		$option->response[ $this_plugin ]->package = '';
	}
	return $option;
}

The plugins page (While the plugin is activated) Will show this:
"There is a new version of NextGEN Gallery available. Download version  
0.96 here <i>automatic upgrade unavailable for this plugin</i>."
