Thanks for the response, but my question was whether it's possible to start libvirtd (and hence, activate the virtual networks "automatically") on boot, but without dnsmasq being started along the way. Your answer means that to disable dnsmasq from starting automatically, I need to disable the network form starting automatically too. Anyway, I destroyed the 'default' network, then killed the dnsmasq process for that network, but when I started it again, dnsmasq started along with it. So, it appears that the whole thing is hard coded. So, would this solution have any side effects: To delete 'default' then recreate it but without DHCP enabled?
