Automatic Updates

A

Since updating to XP SP2, any time I finish the update, I get the message
"Automatic Updates- Updating your computer is almost complete. You must
restart your computer for the updates to take effect. Do you want to
restart your computer now?"

If I say restart later, about 10 minutes later, I get the same prompt back.
This prompt keeps coming until I restart.

Is there a way to disable this nag?

thx
