Since last update, gettig ads at top of my Outlook account

Automatic updates are causing me untold problems and costing me money for repairs! The latest one has happened before and came back with the latest updates subsequent to the last repair that cost me 40.00 in repairs! I am now getting unwelcome ADVERTISEMENTS in the Inbox of my MSN Outlook account. The transfer of all the Hotmail to Outlook accounts KILLED my ability to use my Microsoft Outlook 2010 application that I paid over a hundred dollars for. And yes, I uninstalled and tried re-installing, didn't work.  I am having printing problems with Outlook (only firsts paragraph of email prints!) I could go on and on, but mostly, I have decided to TURN OFF Automatic updates because I am just so sick of them screwing up my laptop! And before you start talking about mucking around the Registry, don't! I leave that to folks who know what they are doing, and that sure ain't me!!
