2. Why is curse updater re-installing addons or modules of addons I manually deleted? For example, I don't need Dominos XP and Buff modules and I delete them, but after each run of Curse updater they are here again. Can I stop it from doing this?
3. Is there a way for it to show which addons have updated version?
Most of your questions can be answered on the WoWAce forums.

1. I am not sure how CC or WIU check version. They have their own methods.

2. Currently CC does not mess with your file system so it has no way of knowing that you manually deleted an AddOn. Likely this will change in future versions however right now, the only way to tell CC that you nuked an AddOn yourself is to nuke it via CC.

3. CC and WIU will only show updated AddOns if you downloaded AddOns via that particular updater. WIU will show a button next to the AddOn saying update is available.
