Where is "do not show this update again"?

The installation of KB922770 failed (I also tried the full exe), and thus
svchost.exe has forced me to disable Automatic Updating, because I cannot
find this "Do not show this update again" -feature. I have clicked and
searched update.microsoft everywhere, but cannot find that button.

Windowd 2000 Pro.dk and Office 2003.dk and
update.microsoft.com/.../.aspx?ln=da
- "dk" and "da" for Denmark and Danish.

Please tell me where to find "do not show this update again" (or how the
English wording might go).

At Windows Update, click on the name of the update
(to the right of the [ + ] box) and the "do not show"
should appear. Clicking on the name again hides it.

No, it is not that simple.

"Do not show" does not display before the download when the update already
is downloaded but not installed, and it will not display after the failed
installation either.

This is of course not about reading the description of the update, but about
stopping the Updater on my PC from making the same search day after day.

Well then start a new thread on your problem update.
It helps to include the KB number in the subject, or you
may wish to search for solutions others have found.
It's unlikely that you shouldn't bother installing it.

Clicking either the [+] or the name at WU reveals the
"do not show" selection. Since I have automatic updates
set to let me know but not download, my answer to your
"do not show" question assumed you could go to WU.
