Saving Real Player update?

Due to personal circumstances, I am having to make do with a 56K dial up internet connection at "home" for the time being. My internet utilities, such as Flash, Shockwave, Java, QuickTime, etc. were in dire need of updating, but it takes hours to download them.
I have been able to do most of the downloads at work (network, own server), save them to my pen drive and then just install them onto my machine (a desktop, so bringing it into work isn't a really available option) at "home".
The exception is Real Player. It only gives you the option to run or cancel, not save. Is there any way of saving the update, or am I just going to have to leave it running overnight and see what has happened in the morning?
