From my own tests, track automation can't be turned off on the master fader regardless of the preference settings or the track state if "Automation Arm" is turned on. To delete all automation that has already been recorded to the master track you right-click on the track name (in Arrangement view) and choose "Clear All Envelopes". You can also selectively remove portions of the automation as well using the other choices.

If I right click nothing happeneds. It's really doing my head in, I'm trying to play a tune and it just starts moving the master fader on it's own.

In Arrangement View the Master track will be at the very bottom on the right. Right-Click the name "Master" and select "Clear All Envelopes".
