Issue 1565: Don't make GoogleUpdate always-resident
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1565

New issue report by [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Product Version      : 0.2.149.27 (1583)

The Chrome install process installs GoogleUpdate.exe and enables it to
launch on startup.  The process sits in the background, running all the
time.

This is a disservice to the rest of the system.

Windows already has a Scheduled Tasks feature.  Use it.  Create a
scheduled task that calls GoogleUpdate.exe at regular intervals.
GoogleUpdate.exe can do its business and exit.
