Take Updates with me?

My parents have dial-up. I am trying to run through updates quickly for them
(they have never updated) but there are a TON of updates that would take
weeks do get over dial-up. Is there anyway for me to put them on a USB drive
or CD and install them? How do I know which ones to install? Is there a
"Mobile Update" that would search the drive and know which installs to use or
would I just have to guess which ones to do?

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Wow, thank you. Is there any way to know which of those update they'll need
(like the Windows Update scan does) or do I just start installing all of them?

You can still use their dial-up to visit and scan for updates if you like.
Just let it take the 20+ minutes to scan for necessary updates, find out
what they need and then install it from your list.

Also - it doesn't hurt anything to re-install an update, so whether or not
you do that is up to you. (Just install them all, that is.)

I did not put the January Updates in there - and on the 'Purely Optional'
updates - unless your parents have some pretty nice machines - I am unsure I
would put Media Player 11 or IE7 on them... ;-)
