Download And Save Xp Updates

[chiang mai]

Can anyone recommend third party software to download and save to disk, any or all XP OS updates, I would like to be able to do this outside of the XP update process? Yes I realize that SP3 contains all updates up to that release point but really I'm interested in the ones from SP3 onwards. Thanks

Don't get me wrong, that's also very handy, but the advantage of WinDiz was for post-installation stuff and users without much knowledge or motivation to update windows. It functioned similar to Windows Update but worked in FF and didn't install the WGA crap, etc. (IIRC)

I thought Autopatcher was shutdown by MS, great to see they survived and are still able to help out.

I didn't mean to imply you got it wrong, sorry if it came across that way. I was just trying to say that they've each got strengths and weaknesses and WinDiz was great when i had someone who just wanted an easy way to update without going through MS.
