be deleted to save space.

Due to the amount of spam posted via googlegroups and
their inaction to the problem, I block all articles posted from there.
If you wish your postings to be seen by everyone you will need to find
a different method of posting.

knows the answer......

I think the updates initially go to to this folder:
CWindows\SoftwareDistribution
but as it's only 40 M/b the files probably end up in the WinSxS folder.
I can't find any hard info about it.
