The icon and pop up note appeared at the top right hand corner of my OOo
Writer (3.1) screen to say that new updates were available. I clicked
on it and found out that the update was for the French dictionary
extension. As I am Australian this update was of no interest to me so I
clicked on the "Cancel" button and went back to working on my Writer
document.
However, the update icon is still in the top right hand corner of my OOo
screen, and I feel obliged to click on it every now and again just in
case there are new updates available, perhpas ones that I am interested
in downloading.
How do I get rid of the update icon after deciding that I do not want
that particular update?
Many thanks, James
Well, it is all up to you, You can update your extensions or
not. I update them whenever they come. I added the extensions
to OOo, so I would want to keep them up to date.

Tim;
If you look closely at what the op said it was a French dictionary
update that was being offered and he doesn't use it. I don't believe he
even added it to begin with. If I remember correctly the French Dictionary
shipped and installed with 3.0.0 and above. It would be nice if there was
a way to keep updates that you do not want or need for what ever reason
not to show up after you tell it to pass. I know it bugs the heck out of
me to keep seeing that update reminder only to see it is again for a
dictionary that I did not install nor have no occasion to use.
Regards
Keith
