Is there a page where I can download the Microsoft updates so I may install

them on offline systems?

Each month Microsoft releases that month's updates in ISO format:

January 2006-current

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913086

 

If you are more trusting:

 

AutoPatcher

http://www.autopatcher.com/

 

Windows Updates Downloader

http://wud.jcarle.com/

 

You can download each update manually - based off the KB Article number,

etc. That way you can back it up/burn a CD of them in case you need them or

use them to keep a slipstream/integrated (updated) Windows XP CD.

 

How to use the Windows Update Catalog

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/323166

(In order to use the Windows Update Catalog, you must use IE to get the

patches..)

 

Windows Update Catalog

http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/catalog/en/default.asp

(In order to use the Windows Update Catalog, you must use IE to get the

patches..)

 

Creating an Integrated Installation

http://snipurl.com/el43

 

Integrate software updates into your Windows installation source files

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/828930

 

Really customize your CD..

http://unattended.msfn.org/

 

Produce an up-to-date XP Distribution CD

http://xpcreate.com/

 

AutoStreamer

http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=223562

 

You can see the critical (security and other) patches released for a given

month using the following:

 

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms##-***.mspx

 

At the end of this line you see "ms##-***.mspx" .. If you simply replace ##

with the two-digit year and the *** with the three character month

abbreviation, you will see the list of "critical" and "important" patches

for that month (since it only happens once a month usually, if you check by

the second Tuesday (wait until afternoon) of each month - you should be

fine) - note that future months will not work.

 

As an example...

 

December 2004's patches..

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-dec.mspx

 

March 2005's patches..

None released.. so that one will fail...

 

May 2006's patches..

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-may.mspx

 

January 2007's patches..

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms07-jan.mspx

 

 

Once you get on the page with each month's list of patches.. You can go to

the related KB articles and grab the appropriate files from there.

I go here each month after receiving which updates are offered from WU Home

scan..cross-checked with those on offer in the yellow shield.

 

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/Browse.aspx?displaylang=en&categoryid=7

 

Then I burn them to disc, disconnect from the net, disable AV, ZAlarm,

antispyware and other security stuff and download.

I have often wondered how one decides what a computer, without any

connection to MS, requires or needs in relation to updates.

Surely, if the computer is not connected to the net, why update security

patches? A question for you Shenan - I suspect you will have a logical

answer.

In addition, had I gone to the link given by Tom, I would have missed 3

updates and downloaded 3 more that were NOT offered in WU Home or the shield

It makes me wonder what damage might have been caused had I taken this

course of action.

Another consideration is that I have read advice in this group that one

should download in the order as given by MS? but cannot remember if it is

the order as per the yellow shield or fromWU Home - as they can differ from

month to month.

I wish you luck with your updates.

Make a RESTORE POINT. Open your IE. Go to Tools > Windows Updates.

Download what it asks for so you can scan for updates. Scan for

updates. Uncheck them all. Then one by one, check one box, click the

+ sign, look for the Details ... link at the bottom. Click it. Go to

the bottom of the page that opens to a link that will take you to the

full-update site. Click it. Read the page that opens. Be careful to

choose the correct kind of update for your system. Find the download

button. Click it. Choose Save to Disk. Download it. Go back to the

Page with the list of updates. Uncheck the one you just downloaded.

Check the next box ... repeat for each update.

 

Best to have a good meal first, some relaxing music in the background,

and no pandemonium around the house.
