I am trying to maintain updates for Photoshop, and the problem is at home dial-up is the only available internet access. I can get the files on the laptop at high speed, and I chose to "update later" after downloading the files. The first question is where are those files stored (Documents and Settings\<user>\? or ?), and the second is whether I can perform the upgrade on the dial-up desktop by copying those files to the similar directory and then checking for updates, hoping that the updater will see that the files it needs are already there?
Thanks.

Where the files are I found:
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\My Documents\Updater
Since I don't know that if I were to perform the update on the laptop, the files would not be deleted upon completion, I copied Updater to Updater2 and hope to use these in the dial-ups Updater directory, but the second question about whether this will work with updater on the dial-up is still unresolved; that is, even with the files, will one avoid the large dialup download (80.2M in this case I believe).

Just run the installer - anywhere on the desktop's hdd.
In future, you can download updates manually from

ps: It should be 11.9MB

The installer/updater removes the files upon completion of installation, so one must "install later" after downloading on the high speed connection, copy the files to another directory for later use, and then apply the updates on the high speed connection laptop.
Note to reply that the download was 10M: there were several files in several directories to download, total 80M, and I was trying to automate this as much as possible so I would not be picking and choosing updates, and make a mistake.
