Thankyou. I had seen this option but I don't have it active so I assumed 
this was not it as with the option to check disabled it should not even 
be checking for updates let alone installing them without checking. I am 
assuming the upper half of this tab does not override the checking 
option and that its specification is which types of updates I want 
checked, although having said this I enabled the checking  and rebooted, 
and kpackagekit still downloaded and installed security updates anyway. 
So it looks like this process doesn't work properly and needs rewriting.

regards,
Steve
