Is there any harm in installing an update more than once on the same PC? Or
out of order?

I've created an update CD with all critical updates for the past 9 months.
It installs all updates on the CD with a batch file and ends with qchain.exe.
The intention is to have a PC patched as much as possible before getting it
online and downloading via Windows Update.

Two examples of using it are:
1. On a PC that has not been updated in 12 months. Is this case, AFTER
using the CD, Windows Update will install updates from 9-12 months ago.

2. On a PC that was last updated 4 months ago. Using the CD will REINSTALL
updates from 4-9 months ago.

Would doing this create any issues?
