OS X

If the OS X update process is running then just return 1. Otherwise
start the update process and return 0.

Because the update process runs as root, StartUpdateProcess requires a
password be entered.

Note that StartUpdateProcess first checks to be sure that the update
process is running before launching one, so there is no danger of it
starting an additional update process if one is already running

StartUpdateProcess does not exist in OS 9.

WINDOWS
