Automatic Updates - Allow option for what time to download

Hello,

I have noticed that windows update, if I want it to update automatically,
will only allow you to select what to time install automatically, but not
when to download. I find this quite annoying as it always happens when I am
the busiest and slows down my internet browsing.

Is there any way that I don't know of to change this, otherwise, can it be
part of the next service pack possibly?

Thanks!
