Default Windows Update has changed

I don't want Windows Update ever to install anything except when I have
already reviewed and accepted it.

Overnight last night it decided to do a bunch of installing and the
Windows Update site itself has changed.

The site itself has links which just sit there indefinitely after I
click on them. Like "Review History", and their "Assisted" link.

Using XP Home/SP3.......how do I get to make my own decisions again?
