How to perform automatic windows update in Windows Me?
Regarding automatic windows update in Windows Me.

Automatically download updates and notify me when they are ready to be installed
Windows finds updates that apply to your computer and download these updates in the background (you are not notified or interrupted during this process). After the
download is complete, an icon appears in the taskbar with a message that updates for your computer are ready to be installed. To view and install the available updates, you
can click the icon or its message. You can then select the specific updates you want installed on your computer.
Notify me before downloading any updates and notify me again when they are ready to be installed
When Windows finds updates that apply to your computer, an icon appears in the taskbar with a message that updates are ready to be downloaded. After you click the icon (or its message), you can select the specific updates you want downloaded. Windows then downloads the selected updates in the background. When the download is complete, the icon appears in the taskbar again, this time to notify you that updates for your computer are ready to be installed. You can then select the specific updates you want installed on your computer.
Turn off automatic updating. I will update my computer manually
Windows will not keep your computer automatically up-to-date. You can turn automatic updating back on at any time by selecting one of the first two settings.
* When you choose not to install a specific update, Windows deletes it from your computer. If you change your mind later, you can click Restore Hidden Items. Any updates you have declined in the past that still apply to your computer will appear the next time Windows notifies you of available updates.
You can always install specific updates from the Windows Update Web site.
