You can set this setting here.

In IDEA 14+ the sequence is:

Settings > Editor > Code Style > Java > Imports > Class count to use import with '*'

In older version of IDEA:

Settings -> Java -> Code Style -> Imports -> Class count to use import with '*'

The feature can not be disabled. You need to set it to a high value, e.g. 99.

In 2016.1.1 version You should also remove the lines under Packages to Use Import with '*', e.g. import javax.*;
