How to stop getting Office 2003 Updates for Office 2007

I have a Studio XPS 8100 running Win 7-64. We originally were running Office 2003 but recently installed Office 2007. Based on recommendations I found online, I installed 2007 directly over 2003 and all of our settings (mail, in particular) were migrated. However, every time I get Windows and Office updates, I'm getting Office 2003 updates as well as 2007, and it messes up Outlook (requiring repair).

Any suggestions how to turn off Office 2003 updates?

I have experienced this problem before and i think it relates to your windows or .net frameworks. I think if you install office in a fresh windows, you won't get this error.
