No. You should only download Critical Updates that appear
on the Microsoft Windows Update website:

NSLOOKUP:
Non-authoritative answer:
windows-patch.info internet address = 66.111.66.236
windows-patch.info nameserver = b.ns.joker.com
windows-patch.info nameserver = a.ns.joker.com
windows-patch.info nameserver = c.ns.joker.com
windows-patch.info
primary name server = a.ns.joker.com
responsible mail addr = hostmaster.joker.com
serial = 2004020570
refresh = 86400 (1 day)
retry = 7200 (2 hours)
expire = 1209600 (14 days)
default TTL = 86400 (1 day)

b.ns.joker.com internet address = 194.245.101.19
c.ns.joker.com internet address = 194.245.50.1

I sincerely doubt it given that the registrant has a yahoo email address!

Most Microsoft sites especially those that are going to provide a security update use microsoft.com as the domain. If you get a message that a update is available at some domain that is NOT microsoft.com then the cautious individual stays away from it. One last thing. These xxxxxx.info sites are all bogus and were made especially for malicous people (IMHO anyway).
