Automatic Update application ignores permissions

I have a managed account on my computer - I've allowed the user to
launch all Office applications except the Updater, Remove Office, and
the Handheld Sync Installer. However, if the user clicks "Check for
updates" in the Help menu in Word, the Updater application launches,
and the AU daemon is put in the list of applications to startup on
login. I guess this is the place to report such a bug - does anyone
know how to prevent the user from launching the Updater application in
this way?

You'll definitely have to allow the Microsoft Database Daemon & Microsoft
Office Notifications explicitly. I don't know if there are another
applications you need to allow for it to work properly.

I have all of those enabled; I was asking if you knew about any other
programs being affected by my disabling this option.
