I am going to do a system restore and reinstall Vista32 and all my
applications. I purchased new February 2008. So now (before reinstall) all
updates are listed for me to see. I know MS clumps updates together. When
I do the first update right after reinstall of Vista32 I am sure I will have
a seemingly endless list if updates. Will I be able to search through the
updates and disable the ones I do not want? (like IE8, etc.)
Thanks for the help.

Background info: I have a desktop AMD 4400+ 64X2 4GB memory 320GB HD(way
bigger than I need) Acer computer (AM3100-U3201A) I purchased new February
2008 running 32-bit MS Vista Home Premium SP2 box. I use MS auto updates.
I think it has onboard shared memory for video and sound. My ISP is Comcast
12mbps with Motorola SURFboard SB5101 Cable Modem direct to computer. No
other switches or routers or wireless or phone line or any other networking
hardware hooked up to this computer.
