They have high-priority updates and optional updates.

High priority updates get installed by automatic updates, optional have 
to updated by hand from windows update.

most security fixes are High-Priority

No major upgrades are, ie the new version of windows media player or the 
.net framework won't be updated automatically.

Of course there are also service packs in the mix, which are forced 
upgrades at some point since new security fixes are only available if 
you install them.
