installing windows updates

Here is a nifty site that lets you update your windows installation without an internet connection.
http://www.heise-online.co.uk/securi...features/80682
You dl the updates from their site and build an iso file. Then run the file after your install.
I have used it a couple of times and it works.
There is an option to let it automatically reboot and continue but I have to say I had problems with the only time I used that part.
check it out.

Right, except that requires you to go onto the internet unprotected. This way you can put the condom on first.

What would be the difference between the two sites? You either get the files with a protected pc or you don't
