Can I stop wus from automatically restarting my server

A GP governs my updates:
If I am not logged onto the server, I find that the server gets restarted.
How can I stop that behavior, I have scheduled restarts and wus should wait
for that.

Thanks
Here are the settings

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\win dows\WindowsUpdate]
"WUServer"="http://wus2ksrv"
"WUStatusServer"="http://wus2ksrv"
"TargetGroupEnabled"=dword:00000001
"TargetGroup"="building1"
"ElevateNonAdmins"=dword:00000001

Hi,

With AUOptions set to 4 (automatic download and scheduled
installation), you will get a reboot if no users are logged on,
there is no way to stop this.

If this is not acceptable, you need to configure your servers to
use AUOptions 3 (Automatically download and notify of installation),
and then logo on and start the installation at a time when a reboot
is ok.


And a FYI:

Please post WSUS questions to the newsgroup dedicated to WSUS:

Thank you for your reply, I did not mean to post it in wrong newsgroup,
but let me say this however, "I always fight for Microsoft products at work
but the answer to this is unpractical, seeing that I have 230 servers running
2000 and 2003. To go to each of them and manually install and restart updates
are absolutely crazy.
I now need to rethink and probably go to third party software to patch the
servers.
This is so frustrating!
