There's a service to turn off too, something like "Windows Update Service". I forgot to mention the single most important thing: Don't let users (even you) run as Administrator. You are probably saying "well duh" but I still see lots of systems set up where the user has full admin rights, or the user is running as admin. So, users can't install stuff to the system directories (but they still can install stuff to their profile directory). This is as it should be!
