Default Problems with updating

Is anyone else having problems with the Outlook 2003 Junk email filter update?

I have Outlook, but don't use it for my email, so didn't want this update. I
removed the check mark & confirmed that I didn't want to be notified about it
any more. It constantly returned to ask me if I want it so I finally gave in
and downloaded it. It fails to install and constantly askes me if I want to
download it again (which I have tried in case it was corrupted).

Now it doesn't even wait until a re-start to inform me that 'Updates are
ready' It's driving me nuts.

Any idea what the problem is or how I get it to shut up about this download?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah - keep, ignoring it! I had the same problem the whizzkids at
micro$oft told me how to fix it and now my PC is trashed. t gets to the
Windows screen and the progress bar just keeps going - nowhere.

The disk access light is on full-time. Just prior to this everything
seemed to be really slow.

Trying to start in safe mode, safe with dos, or safe with networking
shows that it hangs when loading

C:\windows\system32\drivers\btkrnl.sys

Using start with boot logging has no effect.

Unplugging my Logitech BT combo has no effect.

This update had failed to install and just kept on downloading and the
Windows help people had suggested trying to run some command like "oc
qc system=" plus some other stuff. This seemed to get the update to
install but now I wish it hadn't!

I can't get in to see what the email said!
