This has partly been resolved.

The reason why the WSUS-installations didn't work was because the IE7-setup could not download content from MS's WGA-servers on the Internet.

I've got a transparent http-proxy that denies download of unsafe content (executables, including CAB-files).

It seems like the IE7 WSUS installer demands this, and when I allowed a test pc to bypass the http-proxy the installation went fine.

So... now all that is required is to setup IP-exceptions for all of MS's WGA servers... \:\/
