Quickest way to download updates for slipstreaming purposes.

[Oooska]

I haven't created any updated Windows XP CDs over the past 6 months. With school starting again, updated Windows XP CDs are in order. Autopatcher has recently been deceased, and it appears the Windows Update Catlog has been updated and it appears (but perhaps I'm mistaken) that downloading all the updates for a specific OS released after date x is now far more difficult or impossible. Is there an easier way of grabbing the individual downloads for slipstreaming purposes than one of these two methods?

the main autopatcher site got taken down but the mirrors are still alive. go to http://www.getautopatcher.com/windowsxp/ , that's the fastest one I know of. just get the august core and you're set, luckily they pushed that out right before the dev site got pulled offline. keep it somewhere for future installs/seeding, who knows how long they will be up for.

I use this forum thread on the msfn boards:

It's fairly comprehensive and gets updated on patch Tuesdays.
