Disabling Auto Downloading of updates in Win2K

2 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/disabling-auto-downloading-of-updates-in-win2k.13089/

Hi

I have Windows 2000 installed on my computer.

Every time I connect to internet, there comes an icon in my system tray which is like a earth with windows mark in its upper left and it says Downloading Updates and the percentage.

The Program file name running as shown in Windows Task Manager is wuauclt.exe

This slows down my browsing speed.

Please suggest me measure to get rid of this.

Thanks in Advance
