Then use the last REM line for each patch to directly download the patch you
need and save that patch in the same directory as the "patch.cmd" file.
Once you have them all - run the PATCH.CMD file. It will install all the
patches since Windows XP SP2 came out - until now - and a few extras.
Overkill? Maybe - but now you also know every patch that has come out..
Also....
Direct Download of Service Pack 2 (SP2) for Windows XP
http://snipurl.com/8bqy
You can download all updates and burn them to CD..
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.co...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..

Produce an up-to-date XP Distribution CD
http://xpcreate.com/
You can see the critical (security and other) patches released for a given
month using the following:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../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/sec.../ms04-dec.mspx
March 2005's patches..
None released.. so that one will fail...
May 2005's patches..
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../ms05-may.mspx
July 2005's patches..
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../ms05-jul.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.
