windows updates

there is a windows update that i do not want to install , but because of this i keep getting the message new up date are available popping up .

Is there a way you can tell the updates that you dont want this update so it wont keep telling you .

I know you can untick the box to say dont install but the message will not go away by that alone.

Which version of Windows are you running?

Fudge someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I seem to remember that if you right click on the offending update, you can hide it and it doesn't then keep reminding you of it.
