    I'm not sure if this will help or not, but go to http://microsoft.com

    Now in the bottom right of the screen you will see a link to Microsoft Updates. Select that and it should do a scan of your computer to check if any updates are available.

    If you have Auto-Update feature turned on, then you should not have to worry about it too much. I only go to the site once every couple of months to see if there is possibly an update available that I did not receive.

    Hope that helps.

    You could also try this link: http://update.microsoft.com/

    That should take you straight to where you want to go! :)
