http://msinfluentials.com/blogs/jesper/archive/2007/12/28/listing-all-installed-updates.aspxWhile researching a problem the other day I needed to list all updates that were installed on a system and get some details about why they were there.

I just didn't write code to permit that. I did think about it but wasn't sure whether people would find it useful.
