I have Windows Update configured to check for updates and notify me when they're available--never to install them without my permission. But MSE's definitions are updated regularly behind the scenes.
So, I think its updates are handled differently.

I don't trust MSE, as it requires Automatic Updates to update itself and I don't let AU run on my systems. Microsoft has slipped to many things like "Windows Genuine Advantage Notification" in as part of "critical Windows security updates" for me to trust AU to run automatically. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
