From the "checkbox" table set all values to 0. See one of the above URLS for the reason for this.

The 2 ways I have found to get the updates out there are: I am a network administrator for a school with 700+ machines and with apple releasing updates every 2 weeks to fix bugs and security holes in itunes & quicktime problems, I for one have had problems keeping on top of the updates and have spent a great deal of time getting updates out there, as well as slipstreaming my install process for image building.
