Go to this . It's the Windows Update Catalogue. Select which updates you want to copy and when you get to the "Download Window" you can tell it where to download the files. Once downloaded, burn them to a CD/DVD.

When you go to click the link named “find Microsoft Windows Updates” in the left frame.
Now in the right frame select you operating System and click the search button,
once the new page loads click on “Critical Updates and Service Packs “.
Add each item to your download basket then click on the "Go to Download Basket" link near the top of the page.
Once the new page has loaded click on the browse button to select the directory that you want to save the updates to.
Now just click the download button and the updates will be saved in the directory that you selected.
