How do I manually remove the existing WU engine? XPHome edition

Checking over everything yesterday, I realized that after downloading and
reinstalling the Windows Update engine, as you suggested, that the program
really didn't 're-install' the WU. It basically decompressed the files and
then recognized the WU already existed and then said it was finished. It did
not replace the old WU (same version, I believe). I could not find any entry
in the 'Control Panel' for the WU so that I could remove the existing one.

How do I manually remove the existing WU engine? thanks... John
