If you're looking for Windows Updates stuff, check my web site for the WUStools - there's a library of Kix UDFs that deal with Windows Updates - check update status, pending updates, even trigger an update process. There's a sample script that uses the library in the package. I have a package for my clients that uses an enhanced version of this script to schedule server updates within a precise change window.

Removing printers has been discussed quite a bit, getting the local list of installed printers and determining if they are still available. There's one important thing to remember about this - you'll be enumerating the registry to find the installed printers.. enumerate them all and then perform the checks and removals. If you check and remove one at a time, the enumeration process resets and you'll find every-other printer!
