about to murder my laptop

Unless I misunderstand your situation, you have complete control over whether or not any Windows Update item is installed. Just say no if you don't want them.

I'm still puzzled as to why you don't answer direct questions.

However, if you don't want an update, just right-click it and choose Hide.

You can turn off automatic updates in Windows Update. Open Windows update and click on change settings. You can tell it to never check for updates.

Although I dont really recommend it as they are released for a reason. Microsoft do know what they are doing

I know, but the op were complaining that updates automatically installed and the op didn't want them to.

Yeah I know

You need to have Windows Updates set to Automatic and accept all Important and Optional Updates unless there is a specific reason which you have cleared with us.

As with SP's, if you don't have Win7 Updates current then you really don't have Win7.
