StopUpdates10 does manage to disable updates completely.

I might have a look at this in the week as I have seen a few good reports on it. It might be a viable option . . .

The only issue I've found is that you have to remember that it is installed and configured especially months later when you might want to install an update or something.

If it is any good, it might be worth including it as one of the recommendations when a member enquires about Stopping or Controlling WUs.

Agreed but it can be problematic if you need to temporarily enable WU for Windows Updates cleanup. I personally prefer sledgehammer but StopUpdates10 does manage to disable updates completely.

Sledgehammer is also my preference. I've never user StopUpdates10 and I see no pressing reason to leave off Sledgehammer. Besides I've grown used to the program. Old and set in my way you could say.
