Downloading Windows Updates?

[ClubMed]

Has anyone figured out a way to download windows updates and store them for future use? (So I don't have to keep downloading them everytime I reinstall my OS).

Thanks.

I think you can order a free cd from them with all the latest updates. Free shipping too!

I signed up for a free cd and they sent it to me. It contains all the updates up to the point the cd was made. I don't know if these cd's are still available or if this was a one time deal.
They call it "Microsoft Windows Security Update CD"
Mine is from 2-04

You can go into your control panel and then "automatic updates" specify that you would only like for it to download all of the updates and have yourself install it when you're ready.

Oh wait my bad. I misread your question. Do what those guys tell you.
