That's exactly the point.
Remember the process t install the FWC over an existing installation?
That hasn't changed.
Thus, simply replacing the files in your GP share isn't going to update the 
current bits.

I've really got to learn to phrase my questions better...  I've been doing the 
techniques in those links for years now.

What I was mainly wondering if there was a difference between the
file(s) downloaded via that KB article and the files in the mspclnt folder 
(other than a newer version).  They have the same names, so I tested them and 
they seem to be working good.  I updated the GPO with the new version so new 
computers will get the updated version, so far so good.

As a follow-up to this, I downloaded the client referenced in the KB article, 
and extracted the files.  It contains two files, MS_FWC.MSI and SETUP.EXE, 
which match the two in the mspclnt folder on the ISA server.


 

Since my installations are via GPO, I'm going to overwrite those two files in 
the mspclnt directory with the new versions and push out the GPO again.  If 
there is any reason NOT to do this, let me know...

Saw an update on my WSUS server about a Firewall client update for Vista, so 
tracked down the KB article about it...
