Have you ever tried to update 15 machines a day over a 56kb modem, when there 
are 50 or megs of updates for each machine? I only what to cache the cab 
files, nothing else. When we move to ADSL, we will have a 19cent per MB 
charge. So even that's not going to help much. All we need to cache is the 
updates themselves, they don't change, we don't care about anything else on 
the site(although the pictures appear to be giving hits). Can I do that?
