Don't know about disabling it, but to get a "_", just press it twice.
"_" doesn't auto-complete in text strings (quoted).

"_" isn't allowed for assignment anymore, so the only place I can think

Also, this is best addressed on the ESS mailing list:
ess-helpATstatDOTmathDOTethzDOTch (just remove the AT and DOTs)
