I found this in a few different places around the 'net - hopefully it's helpful:
How to Pause or Resume Downloading
After the download process has started, you can pause or resume downloading at any time. If you close your Internet connection or restart your computer after pausing a download process, Windows automatically resumes the download process the next time you are connected to the Internet.
- During the download process, click the icon that is displayed in the notification area, and then click Pause.
- When you are ready for Windows to start downloading again, click the Automatic updating icon, and then click
Resume.
