The problem has been resolved. But I'm sure no one believe the solution.
Problem:
If I click on any links (other than those under "Options") in the left pane,
the whole WindowsUpdate main page will reappear again the the right pane.
Solution:
Use Ctrl + Left Click!! Although there will be a blank tab appear, but now
detail of update items will display correctly on the right pane of the
original tab.
Thank you.
