I would like to create a custom VBscript file, Batch file, Command file or EXE file that updates my anti-virus and firewall programs. Then allow Windows SteadyState to run that file.

First you'll need to know:
1. Does the software allow for manual, file-insert updates?
2. Does the manufacturer have a location where you can download definition files?
If the answer to both is "yes", then:
Create a file that connects to the location, figuring out the latest definition files' names; download them using WinSock or HTTPConnect protocol, and copy them to the right locations.
Details depend on:
- Which AV / firewall software
- Which Windows version
- Which preferred batch system (probably WSH/VBS)
