"Note The procedure that is described in this article does not work for product updates that do not use Hotfix.exe or Update.exe as the installation program. For example, Internet Explorer updates for Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP use an INF-based installation instead of Update.exe."

Oooh! No..not if Internet Explorer is included..what you mean that thing that cannot (oh yes it can!)

be unbundled from Windows?

"Note QChain.exe functionality is included in all Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000
product updates that use Update.exe and that were released since May 18, 2001. However, an issue exists
in product updates that were released before December 2002....

that may apply the wrong binary on your computer in some circumstances"

Oh so it may apply the wrong binary then? That's clever!
