As much as I know it can't be removed, and it is true for every faction's scout.

You can change that by downloading this and putting the file you want to change into the correct Convert_ folder, this one is using the ConvertEntity folder. After doing that you use the _Entity_BIN-2-TXT.bat executable to make it into a legible text file. Here is the Remnant_Mu.entity:

Now what we want to change is this:

defaultAutoAttackOn TRUE

into this:

defaultAutoAttackOn FALSE

After that you use the _Entity_TXT-2-BIN.bat executable to change it back into the format the game can parse. Then you replace the original file with the altered one in its directory. Remnant_Mu.entity would be copied back into the GameInfo folder

As an aside I personally use Notepad++ because of its handy features.
