In the Lion's Den - Combo Updaters
The recent OS 10.7.3 update was posted by Apple, then pulled the next day, then reposted a few days later
Apple recommended while it was pulled, to download the OS X 10.7.3 Combo updater
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1484?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
The OS X updates delivered under Apple/Software Update... are incremental updates
Apple always releases a Combo Updater as well. It's larger but will upgrade any previous version of the same OS X.
Many people swear by using the Apple Combo updaters as a more reliable way of updating to each new OS X update.
