Windows 7 Updates - Important versus Optional

Can someone point me to a good source for information on what the difference is between important and optional updates?

I don't mind non-MS sites.  So long as they're reliable.

Important are normally security or other system critical fixes that affect safety and stability, whereas Optional are normally additional programs that you might want to install, things like .NET/Skype etc etc
