The Microsoft Update webpage has a link to "Pick a time to install updates."

How come it always shows 3:00 am - even after you change it?
Note: I have changed the time to install updates two different ways.
1) From the Microsoft Update webpage
2) Control Panel > System > Automatic Updates
This question was added out of curiosity. Presumably this is the way it was
designed - even though it may confuse some. The real reason for my post
follows.
For the second time recently, it appears Microsoft Update is not performing
an automatic update. I say this is because when I manually check for whether
there are updates the list of critical updates is unusually long.
I just changed it from "Automatic" to "Download updates for me, but let me
choose when to install them." I will monitor this for a week to see if I
ever see a notificatication message on my desktop (near the clock).
Is there a known problem with this setting where it won't stick (i.e.,
remain permanent)?
