I am running Windows server 2003 for a small office. Not being a true IT mananger, it took me a while to notice that Windows updates were failing. I have a very long list of upates (June 11 to July 20 2009) that failed to install. I figured out the incompatibility with an old version of System Mechanic was causing the problem and updates now work.
My question is do I know use Windows Catalog to download and installed all the fail updates or are the new ones all cumulative? I know I can forget the IE7 ones as I upgrated to IE8. Many have cumulative in the name so I guess I am fine there. But what about "Rollup for ActiveX...", "Windows Malicious Software Removal tool..." and all the "Security Updates for Windows....". Are they included in the new upgrades or should I spend the hours to download and install all the old ones? Help??
