*Prevent Windows Update From Automatically Restarting Your PC*

http://www.techspot.com/guides/230-prevent-automatic-windows-update-restarts/

Windows Update's automatic reboot can be one of the most annoying "features"
in Microsoft operating systems. While it's a bit less pushy with Windows
Vista and 7, allowing users to postpone the restart for up to four hours,
you may not be at the computer to intercept the first or subsequent
notifications.

In many cases this isn't a major deal. However, it can be frustrating if you
step away from a work session and come back to a freshly rebooted system.
You might also be downloading a large file or letting a lengthy operation
run while away from your PC, expecting it to be finished upon return.

Fortunately there are various workarounds available. Today we will mention a
few that have been tested to work in XP, Vista and Windows 7 systems.
