Notes: This is v1.1 release of MbsaFU.
Changes: - Add support to also check and deploy service packs. - Add threading capabilities to mbsaremote.exe in order to support multiple target processing at once. - Change the service account of mbsaremotesvc.exe from LocalSystem to the supplied user credential. This eliminate the need of passing the username and password as the service startup argument. As the result of this, mbsascheduler.exe module is no longer needed and has been removed from the package. - ADMIN$ share availability at the target is no longer a requirement to do remote execution (Mbsacli.exe might still requires it though). - Change the patch termination code of mbsaexec.exe so that it send the correct WM_COMMAND message. This should allow hotfix.exe to cleanup any temporary files for the particular patch on when the timeout is used and expires. - Add 'skipdownload' startup flag to mbsafetch.exe. This would dump all the necessary location to manualdownload.htm, as a workaround for those environment where mbsafetch.exe auto-proxy support doesn't work properly. - Lengthen the maximum patch startup argument that can be received by mbsaswitch.exe (to support weird patch switches such as those required to run msjavwu.exe, the Java VM update, in unattended mode). - Rewrite mbsafetch without using MFC. - Remove the use of mbsaexec.cmd for remote execution. - Add file version info to all the binaries. - Update the docs accordingly (now in HTML).
