Re: Windows updates

Barry,

The icon is part of Windows Security. It is just a reminder so you
don't need to click on them. If you perform manual Windows Updates
thru IE7, you'll see the reminder icon disappears after everything is
up-to-date...

I choose to be notified for Windows updates but to manually download and
install them. About twice per month I get a notification that a Windows
update is available and do I want to download it. I choose to download and
install them later. However the icon remains near the clock. I find this an
annoyance.

How would I made the icon disappear when I choose to update myself?

I have WinXP Pro with SP2.

Thank you,

Barry Karas
