Dear Group:
I installed most of the XP updates from MS and restarted my computer.
Now the "Updater" icon stays in the system tray. Before all I had to do was click the icon and cancel.
But now the icon stays in the system tray. To shut it down I have to do it in Task Mgr.

How long has it been hanging around for?
There is a possibility it's downloading more updates.

Dear benn:
Prior to the MS updates two night ago (13 Aug 2003) all I had to do was click on the taskbar icon for "Auto updates" and tell it to "Cancel" and then the program would close and the icon would disapear.
Now, I do the same but the icon does NOT disapear like it did before.
