how do I turn off auto-update?

Question

'm using Windows XP. I get the balloon in the lower right. I tell that not to upgrade. It downloads anyway.

Then I get the opportunity to allow it to install the upgrade I told it not to download when I shut down. If I tell it no 3 times, it now hounds me with a pop up every 5 minutes.

Since it refuses to listen, how do I kill it?
