Default Windows ME updates

I recently gave my old computer to a friend. I rebuilt the hard drive and
successfully loaded the ME operating system, etc. such that the computer
seems to be working fine. However, the computer now has only the ME version
that originally came with the computer and lacks all of the subsequent ME
updates. Is there some way that I can find, download and install all of the
ME updates? Thanks.

Default Windows ME updates

All of the updates you require (and all that are available) can be obtained
from the Windows Update site. You must use the Win Me PC to download as the
site (and the associated catalog site) can only be accessed by a PC running
Win Me. A shortcut to the site http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ (which
redirects to http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp) will have
been placed on the Start Menu when you installed Win Me.
