Sadly, Autopatcher has had to close down. The OP needs to use Windows
Update.

Re: finding updates without the automatic updater checking the compute

Yeah seems MS shut them down... didn't want it to be too easy to get updates
I figure....
and of course there is the chance that someone could put up an update site
and stick in
a bunch of malware..... (yeah I know some claim malware is MS primary goal
)
