Live Update installs -- I've directed it not to

Hi Roy,
Thanks for writing into us at Online Support.
First I am crossposting this into the Network Manager section where it
should be posted. I support that section also.
I haven't heard of this happening, but then this is a new program and just
now admins are installing it. I will need to look into this problem and
see what I can find for you on it.
I will write back to you by tomorrow afternoon, Pacific, and have something
for you then.
