Does anybody else find Windows's 'autonomous shut-down and update' feature phenomenally annoying? I mean, who's supposed to be in charge here exactly?!? Is there a way to disable it? I've got Windows 7

Control Panel - Windows Update - Change Settings

You can tell it what and when you want to update, and whether it's automatic or manual.

hit the windows button and type [b]windows update[/b] should be the first hit on the list, there's a change settins link on the left, click that and decide what you want, "download but let me choose when to install" is probably what you want
