On my computer i have it setup sot hat automatic update downloads the new updates from microsoft and then when i get time i just tell it to install but for the last few months the same update has been downloading, the exact same one everytime. It's a security update, i've tried installing it numerous time, plus i've tried cancelling it but every day it comes up saying for me to install it. the best i can do it tell it to remind me in 3 days but it comes up again . Is there some way to block this exact update or stop it from getting this one without turning off the automatic update option. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx.

There are some involved ways to handle this, but try something simple to see if it cures the problem. Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, find the Hotfix Qxxxxxx in question, Remove it. Then go to Windows Update and let it re-install it.
Often this is enough.
