SOLUTION FOUND! AutoUpdate forced reboot issue

Check out this URL and look specifically at the
NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers option. We have a .reg file that we apply
to our machines the enable auto updating and set the settings and such
and the information is all stored in HKLM\SW\MS\Win\CV\WindowsUpdate
\Auto Update. This page says the information should go in HKLM\SW
\Policies\MS\Win\WindowsUpdate\AU. I looked and that key didn't even
exist so I both created it and added the info to what we had before.

Here's the URL:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/pro...ntain/sp2maint.

Here's a copy of our registry file. Feel free to modify as desired and
use it. All you have to do is copy the text below the break, paste it
into Notepad and save it with a .reg extension. If you double-click on
the file, you'll be prompted to merge the information into the registry.
If you'd like to test it, open the Security Center in the control panel
and either disable autoupdating or set the time to something other than
10:00 am. Merge the info in the file into the registry and go check the
settings.

Cheers!
