Simple enough. You want for whatever reason change the windows updates settings and notice that you can't as the system has hijacked the windows updates component. If you're using windows xp, do the following:
1- go to run (or hit winkey + r)
2- type regedit
3- navigate to the location below:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Policies \ Microsoft \ Windows \ WindowsUpdate \ AU
4- in the right pane, find AUOptions and NoAutoUpdate and delete these values.
If you running windows 7, the following also applies up to getting to the windows registry keys. You need to find AUOptions and change the values from 1 through 5:
1. Download updates but let me choose wether to install them
2. Check for updates but let me choose wether to download and install them
3. Download updates but let me choose wether to install them
4. Install updates automatically
5. Enable the option box to choose manually (this is what you want if you want to take ownership over your pc)
