Hi.

A friend of mine has Vista SP2 and he wants to include the latest updates.

To post this message I tried using his account or making a new one but it doesn't seem to be working.

So I will ask from my account.

I used Windows Updates Downloader to download them.

The files:

Internet Explorer 8 Updates\IE8-Windows6.0-KB972260-x86.msu	
Internet Explorer 8 Updates\IE8-Windows6.0-KB973874-x86.msu
dotnetfx35setup.exe

Windows6.0-KB973507-x86.msu
Windows6.0-KB973540-x86.msu
windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe

A few questions:

1. Do I add all of them or just some?

2. For Internet Explorer 8 do I need the main installer? If so where do I find it in a form that can pe added as an update/hotfix in vlite..?

3. Is there an addon for DirectX or do I have to install it silently in RunOnce?

Can you please help me and my friend?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards, Cosmin3

I have tested in VirtualBox and:

1. Indeed I need the main installer for IE8.

2. These updates are not helping much. For example with them Windows Update says there are 68 important updates and 42 optional; without them it says 73 important and 43 optional.

Where can I find them..? I mean a location where I can download them at once because I'm not so happy searching and downloading so many updates one by one...

Alrgiht!, I have your answer. For your question 1 use vlite. And for all the updates you wanted to download please tell me your download speed.

Ok, thank you.

My download speed is usually 350 KB/s but on some ocasions it's 2..3 MB/s. For example from microsoft .com I download Waik with 2 MB/s.

Anyway I didn't understood why you replied "vlite" for my first question since I asked which updates to integrate not which program to use.

Of course I knew that I have to use vlite to integrate them...

When I replied in this thread I didn't asked only you, I asked everybody. I didn't created a new thread because the rules on any forum say to not create another thread on the same subject.

So I didn't understood your "Alrgiht!" either...

Finally, I gave up searching for a list with all updates. I think that Vista it's not worth all the trouble. XP and 7 yes but not Vista.

I'm not using Vista and I will never use it. So I will tell my friend that, for now, he should continue downloading updates as usual.

Thanks anyway.
