Vista wants to update a non-installed program

When I installed OfficeXP I chose NOT to include Outlook since I won't use it
anyway. Nevertheless, Vista keeps telling me that there are important updates
available for Outlook.
What the heck, and what can I do to get rid of this permanently? I've
already hidden every such update but that's not what I want.......

Office Update offers updates for Office programs that you do not have installed
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830335

Just let it do it's thing, and then it'll go away. Annoying yes, but that gets rid of it.
