windows update problem

[drvarunmehta]

the automatic update icon appears in my system tray as soon as i boot up my pc and says 'updates are ready for your computer. click here to download these updates'. if i click on it there are no updates to download. why does the icon persist in the system tray?

ok if u dont want that update to pester u go to system properties select the AUTOMATIC UPDATES TAB and there disable.. but i advice you to keep it on.. cos u will b needin the critical updates that will help u.. but its upto u..

i think u misunderstood me. i dont want to disable updates. all im saying is that the update icon appears even when there are no updates to be downloaded.

ok m8 select the option automatic and below that u have the time.. select a particular time.. or select the option download the updates and notify me to install.. but id suggest u select the auto option and set a time.. so that daily at a particular time alone it searches..
