All,

Early last week, I set up a GPO to setup WSUS entries for
workstations. I've probably fubar'ed something, but I can't figure it
out.

The issue today is that I've got some random updates (starting last
night and continuing on through today) installing and rebooting
machines - I haven't yet figured out how many machines.

When I look into the WSUS administrative interface, I see that some of
the updates were approved on Monday evening with a deadline of 4am
Tuesday, and some of the updates were not approved at all, yet
installed anyway starting last night. In particular we don't use WSUS
to distribute the Junk email filters.

By looking at c:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log, I see that all of the
updates are being downloaded from the WSUS server, however.

The 4 updates that seem to be in common so far are:

     - Update for Root Certificates [August 2010] (KB931125)
     - Update for Internet Explorer 8 Compatibility View List for
Windows XP (KB2362765)
     - Update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Junk Email Filter (KB2291595)
     - Security Update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 (KB2293428)

The above are what installed on my machine, but others have gotten
them, plus others.

I tried to find a way to export the GPO settings directly, but had to
resort to going into my workstation's registry and exporting the
HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate subtree.

The Group Policy settings that have been applied to the workstations
are below - can anyone see what I might have done wrong?

Thanks,

Kurt
