Okay I have just realised what has been going on, this relates to Issue 361 as
well.
As mentioned in Issue 361 the first manifest loaded, lets call it Manifest1, I
loaded up and checked all was present.
I then logged out and changed the clientID so it would load Manifest2, logged
back in and in seeing manifest1 still there attempted to install something,
which appeared to refresh and display to Manifest2 content. I then tried to
install some software from it, and then canceled it, the download from the repo
continued even though MSC showed it was canceled.
I restarted the client, logged back in and the download had stopped and the
repo indicated the same too.
Restarted the client, updated the clientID back to using Manifest1. Logged into
the client, it was still showing Manifest2 content, check the update tab and it
began to download some software again, let it finish and it appears it had
remembered the original pice of software I tried at the start of this testing.
Clicking back on the Software tab had also updated to display all Manifest1
software.
I hope that makes sense, but has probably confused matters more.
I will try and make clearer if required.

Forgetting the tangle I got myself into above; I believe what I am seeing is,
if I start an install and then cancel it, the client carries on downloading
from the repo, even though it will not do the install.
I wondered, if this is what is happening, if it could be stopped for bandwidth
sake?

When you choose to install something from the Software list, that something is
added to the local SelfServeManifest and an updatecheck is started (if one is
not already in progress).
If you click Cancel on that same item, the item is removed from the
SelfServeManifest. No attempt is made to stop the updatecheck, as you could
have chosen to install multiple items and had cancelled only one.
If you really want to stop the updatecheck, switch to the updates tab and click
the Cancel button.
Closing this since it works as designed.
