To get rid of the micro****s updates

Click My Computer,
go to the Configuration Panel
click Automatic Updates
then you have 2 options suitable to fix ur problem

1: put a Tag in the option: Notify when updates are available , but do not download nor install them automaticly.
2: Disable the automatic updates.

that will fix your issue.
good luck

What ever god you happen to believe in has nothing to do with it, it's Murphys law.

Had a good game rolling the other weekend, it was aroound 2:30 am. All of a sudden the game gets choppy, the pc starts winding away and the game goes down.
Then I get a message "Virus database has been updated"
Forgot to to disable A/V before starting the game, Doh!

I just run off my computers limited account so I don't get interupted by updates and what not while I'm playing, works well as I don't get bombarded by viruses and stuff either.
