I got it to work fine.  But, It's .ignore-err, not .ignore-error.  Also, 
there are a few updates that you do need to reboot after, or you'll have 
updates that won't install.  So far I've on;y found it to be true with 
Windows 2000.  After installing the SP4, installing IE6, you do need to 
reboot, but I think those were the only two that need to reboot.
