I have mine turned off.

I would say that if you don't like the automatic update feature, turn it off. But be sure you go to the Windows Update website once every while to check if you need some critical updates. Other than the critical updates, I would say the other updates can be ignored most of the time.

Are you running Windows XP? If so, you can disable automatic updates when you go to "Control Panel", "Settings". Under the "Automatic Updates" tab, you can disable it.

Or you can try going to "Control Panel", "Administrative Tools", "Services". Find "Automatic Updates" in the list, then right-click to choose "Properties". Choose "Disabled" in the "Startup Type" setting.

Hope it helps!
