cannot disable auto update

Ok, this is a new one for me. I just did a fresh install of ME and I ran the updater,
installed everything MS had.
Now, the auto-update process - wuaclt.exe - starts itself continuously and displays
a pop-up from the system tray to remind me to update. I go to settings and select
"Turn off automatic updating. I will update my computer manually" and auto-update
closes and is gone from the tray. A few seconds later, it's back and popping up the
reminder again. The settings are back to "automatically download updates yada yada"
again.
I have scoured the registry and cannot figure how this thing is even getting launched.
If I just ctl-alt-del and kill the process, it comes right back. I've had less annoying
virii.
I'm about to just delete the relevant files from the widows directory & see what
that does. Anybody else see this before?
