Ok, so I have 9 machines all running XP that I have to update. I don't want to flood my network's bandwidth on patching.... so I wanted to take all the latest updates and fixes and place them on a CD so I can just go from one pc to another and do updates without flooding my network.

So where do I find the rollup for this? I have looked on Microsoft's website and I am getting lost. Help!

The closest thing I can think of is XP SP3 RC1 - now available. It rolls up everything from SP2 through about Dec 2007. It should go final soon. The RC1 is currently beta - but it works very well.

With 9 machines, it would pay you to become a Microsoft TechNet subscriber.

Schadenfroh has them all listed in this thread. If it were me, I'd just set Automatic Updates to full auto and not worry too much about the network traffic... where I used to work, the fleet ran that way (we didn't use WSUS) and it caused no noticable problems. And that was about 10x the number of computers.
