[CentOS] Yum-cron

Ok, I've just had issues this morning, and went and *looked*. I can see a yum-cron running monthly, sure. Running weekly, I guess. Running daily? Why? And there is *NO* reason whatever for a "yum-hourly*. None. This is CentOS, not ubuntu-snapshot-of-the-moment. I don't know if this is from

[CentOS] yum-cron hourly errors

[CentOS] Yum-cron with CentOS 5.7

Hi all, I use yum-cron with my new CentOS 6-installs and rather like it. So much in fact, that I tried getting it to work in the older CentOS 5-installs I also have scattered at the department. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work for some reason. I found this;
