How do I keep Microsoft from adding things to my computer. I have updates off, and recently they have put two new things on that I know of-bacause they caused a problem with my computer.
How do I keep Microsoft from adding things to my computer. I have automatic updates off (because one of their updates caused my computer to crash), but recently they placed an add-on for Firefox that required much time to remove, and they also added something else that caused Outlook to not work. I don't know what else they might have added that I know nothing about.
This happened
Not sure how often
== The crash was a few years ago, the other two events were within the last couple of months.

In terms of the Firefox add-ons, see http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/.NET+Framework+Assistant
For MS installing things that are not part of Firefox, I think you're better off asking in a Windows forum.
