Update:

Version 2.0 released!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Latest Version: 2.0

General Information

This pack includes the majority of the updates since Service Pack 2. The latest version also includes Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Media Player 11. The source code is available to those who want it, so please ask either here or at the official support forums for it. This project is completely open source and is not licensed in anyway, so I don't care if you use the code to make your own pack and distribute it. Just don't use it for malicious purposes is all I ask.

From version 2.0, I will not be releasing entire packs. Instead you will need to download and install version 1.1a and any packs released after that upto the current pack. The packs after version 2.0 will not contain all the updates. So please remember, you should have version 1.1a installed, plus any packs after that to have all the updates I will release. However, you can install any pack at any time, you don't even need to have all the packs installed. It is wise to do so though.

Windows XP Update Rollup 2.0

This new version includes Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Media Player 11. Please be aware that you must have genuine copy of Windows to install this pack. I am still actively working on this, but don't expect updates very often. It takes a long time to compile these packs.

Windows XP Update Rollup 1.1a

Currently, 1.1a is the latest version. This new version now includes well over 80 updates for your Windows XP installation. Sorry to keep you guys waiting so long for this version.

Windows XP Update Rollup 1.0

Windows XP hasn't had a new service pack released for over 2 years now. So I took it upon myself to make a security rollup pack for Windows XP. It includes almost all the updates MS has issued since Service Pack 2 (not including some that you have to E-Mail MS for) It contains over 70 updates for XP. I am currently looking for testers to test to see if and how well it works on their computers. I have installed it on 2 laptops and my own desktop and they all seem to be operating optimally. I would like to get some comments back on the installer process mainly because I still have a lot of work to do on it.

    Thats weird, I thought I replied here O_o

    Anyway, I looked into NSIS, but, as I don't know enough, I can't really do it. Perhaps someone could assist me in it? :P I'm no good at scripting/programming at all.

    lol

    I should maybe read through the documentation again, maybe I can understand it a bit more. I'd just need to see an example of the line required, then I could get the rest of it done.

    I'v got something figured out, but I don't think I'll be able to get it working by myself lol

    All I need to do is execute a program based on the which installs the user wants, which for me, won't be easy. I have an example script on how to launch a program, but not how to have it launched based on the user's choices.
