Open arXiv.nb (which is the StyleSheet Notebook), scroll down to the 
Style Menu Shortcuts section, and select the 

   Prototype for Style "Equation"

cell (the inner-most cell bracket). If you unformat this cell (Format 
menu | Show Expression) you will see that one of the options for the 
Style of Equation cells is

   CounterIncrements->"Equation"

If you delete this option and reformat the cell then Equation cells will 
no longer increment the "Equation" counter. 

Cheers,
Paul
