You do not "download" that. That is a command - you type it in and execute
it - you run that command... Please read the instructions given carefully.
However - if you have Windows XP - you might find these instructions easier
to follow...

Try method 1 and try to update*.
If fails - try method 2 and try to update*.
*try to update:
- Visit
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/
- If it asks you to install anything before you see a selection of "Custom"
or "Express" - do so.
- Once you see the "Custom" or "Express" selection, choose "Custom".
- Scan for updates.
- When it lists what it finds - install the critical ones.
- You are generally safe doing the Optional Software Updates. I suggest
avoiding the Optional Hardware Updates completely.
