Yes. But Microsoft learned and changed that in Windows 7. It no longer keeps bugging you.
One solution is to just drag that box into a corner instead of closing it, then it won't pop up and annoy you again, sine it's already there, just not visible.
but its got a timer to automatically restart my computer...
im gonna just let it go next time
Isn't there an option to only update when you shut down? I recall seeing the option in the Start » Shutdown dialog list at Uni.
Personally hate Auto updaters with a passion, so IDK on my own machine.
ok, there it is again. imma restart it. il be back. baiii
baack. and it did... nothing. figures, with a microsoft product...
Automatic Updates are always best to "Let me choose what to install" so you can update when you want to.
And yeah - Win7 is sweet stuff.

Huh? Mine doesn't have a timer... it just bugs you like every 10 minutes.

And what do you mean it did nothing?
