I checked Windows Update Support. I went to Windows Update on my computer
and "Review your update history." My update history shows 20-30
consecutive
security updates labeled "KB936181" all of which suceeded with no failures
or error codes. Still they keep popping up every time I shut down the
computer. My history shows no failures for the last 50-60 updates.
:
Yes.

Thanks. I disabled my Avast anti-virus software and my Norton firewall
and
enabled Windows firewall but I still have the same update attempt at
each
shutdown. Do you have any other recommendations?
:
Something's wrong with your computer (unless Windows Defender's
installed;
even then, Defender should only update twice a week via Automatic
Updates).
Tip: Temporarily disable real-time protection by your anti-virus and/or
anti-spyware applications (e.g., CounterSpy, Spysweeper, Spybot Tea
Timer,
AVG Anti-Spyware) and/or any third-party firewall (e.g., ZA) before
attempting to install the update(s). If you disable the third-party
firewall, make certain that you enable the Windows Firewall!

For the last two weeks I have received automatic updates every night
when
I
shut my computer off. Does Microsoft really send out updates every
day
for
Windows xp or is there something wrong with my computer?
