The current WiFi version is 1.7.4. Your update should happen when you shop or sync wirelessly or when you sync or update the library on your desktop.

If what you want to avoid is the downloading of kobo formatted books you have purchased from kobobooks.com, then one option is to open the desktop (which I don't use either), update the library, and then remove the books from the desktop application (rt click on each cover). You can also go onto the website, and remove all of the books from"I'm Reading" there before an update/sync, which should keep a wireless update from resulting in books being loaded onto your Kobo.

If you happen to have books transfer that you don't want, you can easily delete them from the device (one of the features of 1.7.4).
