Disabling the 'Do you want to restart now?' message after Windows XP Pro Automatic Update

One of the most annoying features of using Windows AutoUpdate is the popup warning box that asks:



If you are in the middle of working and cannot reboot, clicking cancel repeatedly on this warning can get really frustrating.

On top of that, some Windows updates AUTOMATICALLY reboot your computer. If this happens while you are gone and you can't remember what was open on your computer - too bad.

Luckily, there is a way to both disable the automatic reboot as well as increase the amount of time between the warning boxes.
