(Thanks CptSiskoX) All those people who don't download security updates due to bandwidth/time/money constraints and concerns just lost another excuse not to install the endless stream of security patches from Microsoft. US residents enjoy free shipping.

    I guess it would be handy when you are doing a fresh installation and don't want so spend an eternity downloading the patches since the original release of the OS.

    I think this is an awesome thing for Microsoft to do. I just spent 3 hours yesterday updating a fresh install of 98SE on a DSL connection(40KB/s). This will save me a lot of time.
