[NBLUG/talk] Automatic Redhat Downloads or a Hack?

[entemann at thread-softly.com]

My DSL connection has been sluggish for the past couple of days and while 
investigating it, I discovered that my Redhat 9 linux box was merrily 
downloading what at first glance look like Redhat updates.  I have used 
up2date and also Ximian's redcarpet to update the system manually but it was a 
couple months ago.  Is it possible that I inadvertently set up one of the two 
to automatically download updates, and if so how can I check and  turn it off?
