This is appearing at the bottom right of my screen, when i scroll over it it says downloading updates (with a percentage) but it hasn't asked me if i want to download updates...
It also does nothing if i click it.

Is this something to worry about or is it just microsoft?

    It's Microsoft update downloading, double click the shield should open it up.

    its just pulling down some updates from microsofts servers to your hard drive in preperation

    you'll get a little bubble telling you there are updates ready to be installed and you can click on the tray icon and select/deselect what you want to install

    You have told it to download updates, you just might not realise it though :)

    If you look in Control Panel you will find a section dealing with Windows Updates. You will have a number of options, basically "never download updates", "download and ask me to install" or "download and install without asking".
