I don't suppose there's a way to turn it off?
It says on the site:

It looks like if you don't download/install KB971033 then its all free and clear.chose to have Windows 7 install updates automatically would have this update installed and running by now
...
Do note that this update cannot be uninstalled or rolled-back. If it is installed into a PC with a hacked version of Windows 7, the only way to remove it would be to reinstall Windows 7 and avoid the update.
From Windows blog it has a few key controversial things
1:
2:The update can also be uninstalled at any time
The question is, do you trust them? What I don't like at all is that it continuously downloads and runs scans all the time... and people wonder why 7 is slow(er) .It is important to know that the customer will see no reduced functionality in their copy of Windows – a customer’s applications work as expected, and access to personal information is unchanged. The Update will run periodic validations (initially every 90 days). During validation, Windows will download the latest ‘signatures’ that are used to identify new activation exploits
