I was worried that having Deep Freeze handling updates would result in the
computer thawing, installing updates, rebooting freezing, installing
leftover updates, automatically rebooting, and getting stuck in that loop.
Does Deep Freeze not do that?

I'm also having the Windows 7 Pro desktops take forever to update.  At
first it was an issue with our WSUS server, but after a restart, they're
taking hours to search for updates (they're downloading through Microsoft,
not from the server).
