Go to Control Panel, Click on System, Select and Click the Update TAB, then click as appropriate to turn off the update feature. This inactives automatic update. There are several way to do this. WHat I cannot find out, is how to then remove the corresponding icon from the tray. MS has hidden that control well as it is not in startup, nor can I find it in the list of running programs!??
