WSUS Updates

A while ago I approved MS Silverlight for automatic install on all computers. Now, how do I know by looking at the attached what updates I need from all these. Which is the latest? User generated image

You shouldn't have to worry about that, the Updates carry with them prerequisites that have to be installed and Windows Update Server won't install them unless they meet them.

which is the latest one I shoudl install?
What I meant was you should approve them all, and let the server figure out in what order they should be pushed to the users.

Double click on them and a report will open giving you the status(whether installed..etc)
If I approve them all, will all of them be installed, even the outdated ones?
also this wont cause automatic reboot will it?
"and let the server figure out in what order they should be pushed to the users."


Wrong!!! it's the client that requests from WSUS the updates that it needs. There is absolutely no pushing of anything from WSUS.
Yes they may be installed , but no the outdated ones won't be because like I said the Update Server will know, wither or not they do an automatic reboot depends on what settings you've previously set for Windows Update on the clients.
