Bug
On non-english editions of Windows XP alias Windows Embedded POSReady 2009, the security update 3126593 alias MS16-014 (and of course all later updates which contain newer versions of NTDLL.dll too) introduces a bug: for message identifiers 0x8020000B and beyond, i.e. all error messages 0xC…, the entries in the MESSAGETABLE resource of NTDLL.dll are "off by one"!
This isn't the end of the world - I assume it would mean that you could get incorrect error messages... May look for a fix.

Seems as good of a place to mention as any -- donations to the Internet Archive are being matched 2 to 1. So, your 20 dollar donation would mean 60 to them:

FYI, you can still get WU to work on "POS 2009" (note those quotes :lol:)

I forget the exact steps, but after you install all the updates (from above), you'll definitely need:

http://download.windowsupdate.com/windo ... .6-x86.exe

Oh shit! Don't bother with that download (the update agent), MS apparently broke this today. It's odd, the website loads, but doesn't seem to do anything after. LOL, I guess a few spots on the internet, techtalk.cc included, are now the source for updating old XP. If the actual downloads start disappearing, let us know.
Well, suddenly, it's working again.
Aaaannnnnnnnnnnddddddddd down again. :lolno:

Why not download and cache them? :think:
You gotta have 'em first :wink:

Can someone start a new thread and at least list those files?
Let me clarify:

Links, list the links.

I ask because Vista is affected by that and daniel_k has scrapped on Aug last year the update links for them, and since vista is less popular than xp, it would be best to also archive the links somehow.

Can someone start a new thread and at least list those files? Seems that if someone had the list of files from Server 2008 that worked in Vista, after MS killed Vista, that'd be nice too.

Seems that this python script should handle the bulk link archiving. It shouldn't skip links if there's an overload (the log argument with level set should imply it), but doesn't hurt to do multiple passes with this tool
