If someone uses a pirated copy of Windows, they can simply search the Knowledge Base (or watch the KB numbers in the security bulletins), download and install them. Or, better yet, build their pirated install CD to install them when the OS is installed.
I work desktop support, where one of my duties is to perform OS installs. To cut down on the vulnerability time of a machine I was charged with creating a 'slipstreamed', meaning all of the updates/hotfixes/service packs are preinstalled, installation CD. Works good, too.
There are many alternatives to Windows Update for the creative user/pirate.
Anyone intersted in a slipstreamed distribution, check out msfn.org's forums. There are a lot of good tutorials and users who do this regularly. (Although, I'm rather liking the internet/network install that Linux offers... Up to date on install, without all the fuss!)
