How to Identify Superseded Hotfixes

[Haynes]

I currently have 85 post service pack 2 hotfixes being installed via SVCPACK.inf, I'm aware many are superseded by newer hotfixes. I want to get away from the SVCPACK method and slipstream these updates into the installation itself. First I want to identify any updates that are outdated. I have viewed the Properties looking for information. I have also looked for this information on TechNet’s Microsoft Security Bulletin Search with no luck. Where can I find this information?

Best thing to do is to refer to the_guy's list.

Compare the given file versions. All that info is available in either the KB or Technet article for a given fix.

You could do all of those, but I've found installing windows without all the hotfixes then running windows update was best way to get a list of what my installation needed.
