It adds a registry entry saying that the Microsoft Removal Tool (MRT) has already been run so it won't show up on windows update anymore.

Many thanks for your response, do you know which hotfix it refers too, as the batch installer is installing 100 hotfixes, and the reg add is at the end of the command line?
