How can I get updates installed ONLY at the request of time?

I have a specific time for my updates to be automatically downloaded and installed, and yet they are always popping up at random times.  Really, I don't want turning turn them completely off, but I don't want to download any when windows has an update available.  How to get updates ONLY download and install at the scheduled time?  Thank you.

You have two options in Windows XP:

1 Select Automatic Updates configuration ' search for updates but don't download or install updates without my permission. " Suppose an update will require a restart and not to approve the installation of an update unless you are ready to restart.

2. turn off the automatic updates and keep your computer fully patched manually from http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com.

I highly recommend #1 if you are still aware of the available updates.
