Many updates, such as language packs, really do not need to be installed. Instead of seeing these updates forever, you can just hide them.

Are you tired of seeing that language pack as a update? What about that hardware drive update that really did not work very well? If you are sure you don’t need, then just hide it!

Within Vista Update, to hide an update…

1. Click View available updates
2. Right-click on the update you wish to hide
3. Click Hide Update
4. Confirm the UAC if needed

Here is the tutorial if you need to unhide an update.
