Is their any way to download Vista updates?

Does anyone know of a way to manually download updates for Windows Vista and
programs like Windows Defender other than going online and updating? I do not
have regular online access and need a way of keeping Vista up to date?

Windows Updates, etc.: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/323166

Defender: See link on right at http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/

For Defender:
How to manually download the latest definition updates for Windows Defender
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923159/

For Vista the website has been replaced by Windows Update in Control Panel.
You may however find vista updates here:
