Is there any way to turn off automatic updates of all applications in windows? Because of that my internet bill is going high. I turned off Windows updates, Chrome and Firefox auto updates and yet some other application is getting silent update. I don't know which application silently updating. Is there any software tool available to turn off auto updates of applications? Or is there any way to control auto updates of applications?

No, ClearType works on the entire screen at once. You can't turn it on or off per application or per window.
You could turn it off altogether while you work with those two programs and then turn it back on, but that is probably just as uncomfortable as it sounds.
Instead, you should try to figure out what's wrong with the two programs that look bad. It might be possible to set them to use a different font, or a different "skin".
Yeah, you are on a domain. You'll need to have a chat with who ever sets the Group policy in your Domain.
I have the same thing and I have domain privileges.

If you go into your firewall settings you should be able to turn off anything connecting to the net from there if you authorized it.
