It should be noted that simply turning off updates is a really bad idea. Short term, while you are on a slow connection, fine, but many of those updates are essential to security and to not clogging your bandwidth and processor speed with malware.
Sadly, you MUST have up-to-date antivirus software and all the latest patches. Unless, of course, you don't mind having ALL of your personal data exposed to every nogoodnik on the internet AND being part of everyone's botnet engaged in all sorts of nefarious schemes.
It's largely due to folks who do not keep up with updates that huge denial of service attacks occur, that spam emails are so prevalent, and that hackers have the wherewithal to break into governmental, military, banking, and other services.
