.SYNOPSIS
Get and optionally install Windows Updates
.DESCRIPTION
This script will get all available udpates for the computer it is run on.
It will then optionally install those updates, provided they do not require

Please see the Related Links section for the URL.
Without any parameters the script will return the title of each update that
is currently available.

param has not been passed, only updates that don't have a Eula will be applied.
.PARAMETER EulaAccept

currently available.
