Why do you not want to restart the computer after you update? Not restarting
could cause system instability.

I am working on WinXP Pro. A irritating feature in XP is that after it 
downloads all the necessary updates & installs them successfully, a dialog 
box pops-up asking the user to either "Restart Now" or "Restart Later". If 
the latter option is chosen, the same dialog box comes up persistently until 
the machine is restarted. Is there some way by which I can stop this highly 
exasperating dialog box from coming up again & again when the "Restart 
Later" option is chosen?
Thanks,
Arpan
