    Go into WU, change it so that you can see the "catalog" and download them

    How can I access the Windows Update Catalog for Windows XP and Windows
    .NET Server?:

    Oh yeah the RPC patch is on Windows update. If you do not see a patch
    you are expecting you are probably having issues with catroot2

    cryptographic service error and how to fix it!:

"Don't lose sight of security. Security is a state of being,
not a state of budget. He with the most firewalls still does
not win. Put down that honeypot and keep up to date on your
patches. Demand better security from vendors and hold them
responsible. Use what you have, and make sure you know how
to use it properly and effectively."
