Just schedule updater.exe using at/Scheduler service. It will occasionally hang and/or try to pop up a dialog though. I'd suggest scheduling setting the W2K or NT4 w/Desktop Update scheduler to kill it after 10 minutes or so, if using old-style at, schedule a batch file along the lines of:
start d:\path\updater.exe /run /internet /quit sleep 600 kill updater.exe The downside is that the f-prot updater does not automatically update the engine.
