Newer features of nLite that will add hotfixes directly to your Distribution/CD/DVD make this little project less and less worth while, so...

I hope to post a package of actual hotfixes required to bring things to date (less wgatray). Windows Update Agent and the malsoft remover still won't integrate via nLite, but hey, I can deal with that, most of the work is done for me by nlite and the result is very nice.

The pack below may be brought up to date if you can do a quick search on 7-zip sfx and hotfix switches...


> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >



All required and critical hotfixes, under 35MB.

Hotfixes have been extracted to knowledge base numbered directories and repacked with 7-zip, providing a superior compression ratio.
The resulting package is about half the size of a "Rollup" using the MS Cabinet Sfx format.

Install...
Extract the silent installer with an archiver, or use the " /Q" switch for a quiet install of pack with the MS CAB wrapper.
...or just double click it.
............................................................................
1. Deploy hotfixes to several systems over a network
2. Patch an XP installation post setup
3. Update a distribution share or CD based XP setup

Includes:
*Hotfixes since SP2 addressing instability, undesired elevation of privilege, or maicious code execution.
*A few optional hotfixes to improove security and funtionality are included, but kept to a minimum.
*Required Windows Update components (less KB905474)

**Uninstall information not added and backups are not kept, updates are permanently installed and occupy a minimal amount of space.

MD5 Hash: F84ED854432F612348394188C5116A45 (iexpress wrapper)
tested: AMDx64-3500+, nVidia Gforce6600, nothin fancy.
revisions: (all fixes reviewed) Flash Player 8 .dll added, no KB905474 (WGA Notify service).

***KB905474 adds boot time scans and wastes time. Just say no to KB905474.

->XP SP2 Updater does not incude fixes for Windows Media Player 10.
-For now, those are -=HERE=- <-(updated 4-12-06) MD5 Hash:46B28A32F7318CEC7A1737A4EA96744C

Want to remove WMP (or other components)? Component removal batch files:
http://jdeboeck.msfnhosting.com

These batch files run presetup next to your I386 folder (XP setup core on CD).
don't use driver removal batches designed for XP SP1 driver cab on XP SP2.
Component removal batches work just fine with XP SP2.

If you would like to integrate hotfixes into your XP setup, one option is HFSLIP.
Hotfixes for such a project may be reviewed and dowloaded from here. You may also download "Autopatcher", install it, and remove the hotfixes. Autopatcher first extracts to Programfiles dir. when you 'install' it.

Thank you!
I temporally lost this post of yours.
But now I found it again! Its the BEST Hotfix around - BAR NONE!!!
I gave up finding it again so yesterday I figured out how to do it myself,
and then somehow I found your post again. Weird.
I've looked at all of them and nothing comes close to THIS Hotfix Update!

Thank you, Thank you for this 7-zipped Hotfix update.
