Regarding Windows XP automatic updates:
You can disable this in a two-step process.
Start->Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Administrative Services. Right-click
on "Automatic Updates," and then click on "Properties." Select "Disabled," and close
the window. Then locate "BITS," or "Background Intelligent Transfer Service," and
disable that as well. This will stop Windows from phoning home and abusing your precious
memory to do it.
Hope this helps.
