Sorry if this is in the wrong place.

I know of these 2 sitea.
http://www.mdgx.com/spx/
http://www.lctn.com/util/95updatelinks.htm

But every other site I find only have a handful of updates at best.

I am not sure how people on this forum feel about this but personally I would download an ISO with all the updates slipstreamed into them already. Most of the time you get these from pirate software torrent sites but as long as you have a legit copy of it yourself I don't see an issue.

mdgx is already very comprehensive. What more do you want?

I like http://www.autopatcher.net/ which downloads the updates directly from Microsoft, but they don't support anything older than XP. (Apparently many old XP downloads are already being removed from the Microsoft website.)

Let's not get into any suggestions of piracy or where to get such things. Thanks. 😀

Definitely not suggesting Piracy. Just making custom images that include all the updates for use with licenses we already have. 😀

a better less noisy mgdx page with less hype and exclamations. When I read it it's always in Billy Mays' voice 🙁

I should still have an ISO of the Dutch security CD, but dunno where I left it.

Also uploaded all of the Dutch ME updates years ago (covertly while at work 🤣), but that link is long gone by now. Should still have these updates somewhere, but I remember it wasn't actually that much.

I'd suggest using some of these unofficial SPs, it's the easiest way to quickly get things done I think.

Don't think 3x had many updates, security updates were not around yet. I think it was just the Y2k file manager fix and the 32bit update
Both are here http://www.conradshome.com/win31
No idea about OS2

Personally I don't worry about updating my systems unless I come across the issue. Say like the above y2k bug fix.
Don't see any point in slowing down my system with security updates for systems that are known to have vulnerability's which MS have acknowledged exist but have no intention to patch.
