Stop Installing WGA
Okay, just turn on Automatic Updates and choose the automatic download but custom installation option. When the download is complete, first check the components in it by right-clicking on the taskbar icon and selecting the 'Advanced' tab. If you are not able to do it, disconnect from the Web, restart your system without installing, and then you should be able to do it after logging into your desktop. You can then uncheck/deselect the WGA notification etc. components from the download list.
NB: Bill may be peeking in!
