I mean how to block it even when you have disabled it ...

Everyone knows by now that windows is like the Chrome browser ...(wait ...other way arround :) ...)
that will update it self without permission of the user.

Even if you disable updates - your system ...(browser) what ever ...will be updated without your knowledge ...
thats actually why yesterday all worked fine - and today - everything is fucked up...


so...lets fucking block it ... i dont know if its the NSA ...or as microsoft said - "those updates are crucial to the system" ...
.....sure ... especially when they screw everything up...
anyway... those are not welcome ...


BLOCK !!!...and DISABLE akamaitechnologies.com
at this moment - it is one of the largest sites that hosts update files...
so when update is issued - it usually comes from there...



You can block the site by entering into your "hosts" file following records

127.0.0.1 akamaitechnologies.com
127.0.0.1 deploy.akamaitechnologies.com

"hosts" file is located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\

in a few days you will see first notice that windows could not update it self ...
it will say you have a virus ...and will ask to restore hosts file :)

This is just partial protection ...that will shield you from "some" updates...
though others might still get through ...
I'm looking for the complete list of sites / IP's .. now ...

Or:
1. Browse:
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Administrative Tools\Services

2. Find:
Windows update

3. Block:
Right click on that service -> Properties
Select Startup option - Disabled
Select Service status - Stop
