Download WSUS Offline Update 6.8

WSUS Offline Update has been updated to version 6.8. This program makes it possible to provide Windows computers with a slow or no internet connection with the latest updates from Microsoft. By simply checking one or more operating systems, office suites and languages, all available updates will be downloaded from Microsoft’s ftp server. When the updates are in, an ISO file is optionally made per language or per operating system. Other computers can then be updated quickly and easily via a CD or DVD. WSUS Offline Update has support for Windows XP and above, and Office XP and above. New in this release include support for SP1 for Windows 7 and the ability to install the RC from IE9.
