That is not true. You can also download the Update files 'manually', without having to tell Microsoft about your digestion problems and grandmothers. It's hidden somewhere in
www.microsoft.com/windows/update/ or
something, I'll dig out the URL in case anyone needs to know.
Well actually (shock!!!) they've moved the page. It's now at http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ , but they don't have any of the latest patches there. You have to go to the Office Update site (http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/ to find the the Excel ODBC patch and the Microsoft Security site (http://www.microsoft.com/security/) to find the Virtual Machine and scriptlet/Eyedog patches.
