How often XP check for any updated pack?

I set the internet connection to be disconnected after idle 10 mins, but it
never disconnected, does anyone have any suggestions on how to do the setting
to control the period for checking any update service for XP?
I am using XP pro with SP3 and IE8
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Eric

Hey German Swine,

All updates since September 2009 are designed to destabilize Windows XP
System not to strengthen it. If you are correct that there are 68 updates
in 2010 then clearly these updates are completely useless because even 68
updates haven't made anybody's system secure. In fact these updates have
made the systems slower and very unstable. So you are free to spend your
time playing with them but you ever recommend to anybody else because they
have no problems with security issues.

Hope this helps.

Thank everyone very much for suggestions
