Here's the link for a good start page for AUTOPATCHER.

If you need to reinstall or even a repair reinstall, you'll lose your upgrades & fixes.

This program gives you a list of all the available hotfixes, highlights the ones installed & you check which you want to install, in one package.

No more Windows update ! HOOT!

They have changed the program, so you need the May 'core' then each month following you get another update package & add on packages available.

Links from the link below to their forums for any questions.

Works great!

UUMM--DON"T install IE 7

CLICK--FREE!!

but i like windows update. its saved my bacon several times.

of course if you go there now with a certified version of windows xp you can get microsoft update which is replacement for windows. it is to be better then windows update.

so i still stay with windows update cause i don't like change too much.

and i'm lazy.

So, if you're lazy--this is for you--nothing could be simpler.

It installs ALL the upgrades without a restart--until they are done.

For a while, my pc was downloading automaticly one update at a time & demanding a reboot.

It would have taken --like--two years or so.

Plus, for like $7 you can order a CD--for those on dialup, as it's a hefty download.
