I applied my patches using a .cmd file with the following commands and did not 
have any issues.

st1\:*{behavior:url(#default#ieooui) }The current critical Microsoft patches. 
Since the last set, it installed, I allowed it to, not knowing, the new 
updater/installer.  Since then, and time a patch is applied, that requires a 
reboot, it continues to prompt for a reboot, every X minutes, until you do.  
The users also get this prompt, when making connections to published 
applications on the servers, but the button is grayed out and they are hung and 
can not close it.

Which patches are you referring to? I was able to control the reboots with this 
last round of Patches on 2003 servers.

With the changes to the updater*I now am forced to have to reboot my servers as 
soon as I patch a server, whereas before, I could patch, wait for the weekly 
reboot and be done. Now I must coordinate downtime of 70+ servers in a 24x7x365 
environment. This makes me less than pleased. Anyone have a way around this?
