what i've done for updates is I've created a bat file that uses wget to grab the updates from the windows 7 folder, office 2010 folder, and MSE folder. Atm, it doesn't remove old updates, but i'm working on that. well here's the code for anyone that would like it del /S /Q *.html del /S /Q *.htm del /S /Q *.log start wget.exe -m -k -np -c -o win7.log http://hotfix.chris123nt.com/Windows.7/ start wget.exe -m -k -np -c -o mse.log http://hotfix.chris123nt.com/Microsoft.Security.Essentials/ start wget.exe -m -k -np -c -o office.log http://hotfix.chris123nt.com/Office.2010/ the del cmds removes the htmls so you can refresh the downloader. and all output is to a log file.
