[Microsoft News]

How do you get windows update to stop downloading and trying to install
941649. I've deleted it. I've stopped automatic updates. I downloaded the
update and tried a manual update but Vista says it does not need it but yet
it keeps on coming back for an install. I want it to go away. If I click
windows update it comes back again. Anyone know how to make windows update
ignore 941649?

Thanks

Right click on the update and choose the Hide Feature.

This will only work if it is not a Important update. That will only work on
Recommended updates or lower. If it is considered a Important update there
is no way around it.

Use the 'Custom' option and block it there ('never show me again' or
words to that effect. I have successfully bloaked the installation of IE
7 this way.

That will noly apply in XP. Not Vista. Vista does not have this Custom
option.

You're right. I was thinking XP.
