Re: WINDOWS UPDATE

Let's see what the new Microsoft Update Catalog has:
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspx

YUP. The entire package is there. Use IE or Firefox with IETab to access it, input KB929300 in the Search field, click Search.
You can figure out the rest <w>

Framework 3 is supposed to be 53MB or something, that link brings me to the small patch which then forces me to download that massive fix.
The 2.0 was great thanks! But is there a link for 3.0 for the monster file 53MB?

So it tells me I need to update to these 2 packages which come to about 77MB.
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 Service Pack 1 (KB929300)
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 (KB110806)
Purposefully I have dial-up at home so I won't spend much on the PC so I can cool my heels. In most instances I have always been able to download the new patch from a broadband connection, save it to a disc so I can install the updates to my machine. Now when I attempt to do so with these mammoth updates there is no such thing.
You have to download some tiny patch, which then drags you to download to the mammoth patch without giving the option to download the damn thing off site sort of speak.
Is there such an option forthcoming for these updates???????????
