    Hi Guys,

    The mainsite has a post for @ http://www.majorgeeks.com/Microsoft_Security_&_Critical_Releases_ISO_d5214.html and I was wandering what exactly is it, is it all the updates 'After' SP2? I don't know if I should grab it or not, as far as I can tell if I had this, all I do is Format, Install XP Pro SP2, then put the new CD called "Microsoft Security & Critical Releases ISO September 06" and it will put all the updates on my PC, so when I do go to update online, then it won't be a massive download, only updates since past "12-9-2006"?

    Or am I mis-interprating something?

    Thanks Guys,

    Dave

    Its a collection of the current released security updates from this month, this ISO is generally used if you have multiple PCs to update as it saves downloading them multiple times, it is not a cummulative list of updates from SP2 to yesterday. Reason its a large file is that it covers all OSes from MS including WinXP, Server 2003, XP64, Win2000 that gained updates as well as multiple languages ( can be as many as 24 different langauges for eachg update ) of those updates for System Admins to install on multiple PCs.




    if you have only 1 PC its best and easier to visit Microsoft Update and do them online.
