As many have pointed out:
 
 (remove-hook 'gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook 'gnus-summary-expire-articles)

For other ideas, this is what I do:

 (setq gnus-use-demon t)
 (gnus-demon-add-handler 'gnus-group-expire-all-groups 30 30)

Which runs the expire process automagically every time I've been idle
for 30 minutes or so...  Works like a dream and I rarely ever see it
happen!
