Just notice today when checking for new updates.
It was changed to auto update without my knowledge. I had it set at manual .
The following was installed without my knowledge ;
Windows Update Agent 7.4.7600.226
Installation date: ‎10/‎3/‎2009 6:46 PM
Installation status: Successful
Update type: Important
The Windows Update Agent enables your computer to search for and install
updates from an update service. The agent can automatically update itself
as needed to communicate with the update service when Windows searches for
new updates.
More information:

I am tempted to un-installed it.
Any recommendations ?

Don't worry, just accept it. It's a so called "self update"
