AutoPatcher comes in Full Versions or Monthly Updates version... Full version contains all updates after SP2 until month specified... Monthly updates contains specific updates of that month only...

Depending on the version you have, you may need to install only the latest or all of them...

How to find whether it is a full version or monthly updated version?
The July issue of Digit has April 2006 update and May update. Is it OK to install the may update only?
I installed from Dec update. Now i want to update? what should I do?

Update is monthly updates only... You should install Full version of April before installing May Update only... Since the Digit issue came with April update, you should try to get your hand on March Full version... Sometimes, when this gets confusing, the best resort is to download the latest full version and verify all patches get installed...
