hie Mungos,

This (http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:ZqWRp3QB0EcJ:www.petri.co.il/wu.htm+%22+erases+the+downloaded+files+from+your+c omputer.%22&hl=en&client=firefox-a) site says "If you ever need to re-apply a patch, or if you want to install the patches on multiple computers - this might be a problem, because after downloading all the updates, Windows Update installs them right away and then erases the downloaded files from your computer."

You can download and save updates from Windows Catalog. Chk the same site for more info on Windows Catalog.
