In my neverending quest to have the perfect Windows Unattended installation, I would like to update the Windows Update Agent to the latest version.

I'm using Windows XP SP2, I have all the latest patch install, and I'm also installing the Windows Genuine Advantage agent.

Still, when I go to the www.windowsupdate.com page, It's asking me to install an ActiveX control to verify the version of windows update and once that is installed it's asking me to install a new version of the Windows update program.

So where can I find and how can I install in my unattended installation :

1. The ActiveX control that verify the version of the Windows Update Applicatoin

2. The latest version of the Windows Update Application

You have to download

* Windows Update v6 about 4,3mb and it's international.

* Windows Genuine Advantage to check your version, it's a dll named LegitControlCheck.dll & GWFSPIDGen.dll

For dlls put both in system32 and run regsvr32 /s LegitControlCheck.dll to active ActiveX. If I remember there is an offical EXE or CAB ...

edit: okay there are already present ... check @ http://sonic9.free.fr/files/Updates/ ...

WGA.exe is already silent install by Microsoft

WUv6.exe can be run with these switchs : WUv6.exe /wuforce /quiet /norestart
