The domain server at work has enforced a group policy that enables automatic
updates at a specific time each day. The options are also grayed out so I
can't change anything or disable auto updates. This is in the Automatic
Updates screen via Security Advisor in XP Pro SP2.

How do I disable this group policy? I assume there is a registry setting
that I can modify, but I can't find it.

Thanks,
TT
