Clusty it, or Google it.

It is too complicated to explain on a post.

You people really need to switch over to MAC. I have, and i'm not ever looking back. Heck, Rush did the same thing. If you don't listen to me, at least listen to El Rushbo

Start | Control Panel | Automatic Updates

Click on "Turn off Automatic Updates". I personally don't recommend doing this.

On my machine I do the following: Go to Start menu, Control Panel then Security Center. Click the icon for Manage Automatic Updates. You probably have the top box checked, check either "Notify me but don't automatically download updates" or "Turn off Automatic Updates".

I've got mine set to notify me but don't download.. but then again, we're networking 6 machines on a 56k connection and 3 people in the house are EQ/WOW players. We have to arrange download times carefully. When we had broadband, I had the updates auto dl and install.

Try going to a pub where women shoot darts.

In XP w/SP2 go to the control panel, select Security Center,
then select Automatic Updates. A dialog will allow you to configure the feature.

I don't have an earlier version of XP in front of me at the moment. Try looking at the various customizations for the
Run Menu.
