Windows Update vs. Microsoft Update
When Microsoft Update came out, my general understanding was that it was Windows Update + "All Other MS Products Update", however, I have noticed when running a check with Belarc Advisor on a machine, that there is usually from one to a dozen or so "missing" windows updates. If it was a matter of just going to the KB page and downloading a fix, wouldn't care but last machine I looked at for someone (right after running WU) had 15.
I looked at the 1st 5 or 6 and they were all security fixes that stated MicroSoft Update had to be used. Again, w/o any MS products other than the OS, wondering why this is happening. It was just a quick visit and if I had time I would done more investigating but have been hearing this more and more of late. Note, I do get NET updates from WU tho I oft see it stated that you need MU for that.
