My computer keeps trying to download & install sp3. It fails reach time
because I do not have Office 2002 installed! I have Office 2000 and am not
interested in upgrading any higher because it does all that I need. Also of
course because of the cost.
Is there any way I can stop this Da...d interference from Microsoft? I
thought that it scanned what progs I have using and decided on that what
updates and/or other items I need.
It also keeps trying to update Office 2002 Outlook every time I sync my PDA.
Please help.

SP3? I think you meen SP2.
ok, you need to go into the "Control Panel"(Start/Control Panel), Now go
into "Security Centre" (Looks like a coloured shield) And turn off
"Automatic Updates". This should stop all auto updates dealing with
Microsoft programs, don't quote me on it though.. Hope this is of help.
I'm assuming your running WinXP.

Aido.
