Downloading patches to install on another PC

[usbobbie]

I've looked all over and cannot find out how to download
SP1 and the latest security patches from Microsoft so that
I can install it on another PC. That PC is running XP and
is dial-up, and will not stay up long enough to download
anything since it has the Blaster virus. Therefore, I
need to put the patches on CD. Can anyone direct me to
the correct download page? Thanks for your help.
