Block downloading and installing „Malicious Software Removal Tool“ via Update

I’m looking for a methode to block „Malicious Software Removal Tool“ updates from being downloaded and installed when doing Windows Update?

Solution:
You can set the following registry key to prevent downloading and installing MRT at windows update process.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\MRT]
"DontOfferThroughWUAU"=dword:00000001

You can download and install the MRT manually without problems but via Microsoft Update or WSUS Update the patch will not downloaded.
