Hi... usually when it downloads updates they are found in c:\WUTemp folder (Windows Update temporary) - For Windows XP SP2, the installer is stored in a sub-folders under %Windir%\SoftwareDistribution\Download. THe bad thing is that it deletes the updates after it installs them. You can either copy the folder while the update is still installing or just read this article from M$ on how to download Windows Updates from Microsoft Catalog: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;323166
