liubliu Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Hello everyone !!! I have a big, big request: Dear Administrator could you .rar all Windows XP updates, fotfixes and patches? Pease... So that we could download them all at one instance . Because there are a lot of them, and every time we have to pass by 38 pages... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5eraph Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) Imagine the bandwidth costs when everybody starts downloading the large archive instead of the individual updates they need. I wouldn't count on it, liubliu. Never underestimate the bounds of human laziness, even if it only saves a few clicks of the mouse. Besides, you should only have to go through the 38 or so pages once if you really want them all. I had to do it, why shouldn't you?

xable Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Moved to appropriate forum. Well, bandwidth is not a problem, we have plenty of that spare. However, the extra resources needed to serve the huge amounts of traffic that would cause is another story. We`re on a scalable VPS so the extra resources are there waiting to be put into action, but alas, their not free. If you want to foot the server bill at the end of the month though liubliu, then of course you can have an 11.1GB .rar of the whole hotfix archive.
