When you are prompted to install the updates, click on the show details button, and deselect the updates you do not want to install. You will have to do it every time though. I have not found a way to hide updates that you don't want to ever install.

Highlight it and push delete. If you want to see that update again in the future, simply go to Software Update > Reset Ignored Updates.

The step I forgot to mention was what Chef said about clicking on the Show Details button when you have things to update.
