Here are some Download and installation information:

• Recommended:  Perform a full backup of your entire farm and operating systems including SQL server with database backup to be able to roll back in case of errors!
  or install the updates first in a test environment 😉
• For your customizations: ensure that you have the files and binaries for all changes, features and solutions in place for recovery on failures!
• Install SP2 for WSS and MOSS SP2 and Language Packs if not yet happened. With the next CU in April 2010 SP2 will be a real mandatory step!
• Install the full server package for WSS http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=978396&kbln=en-us
• Install the full server package for MOSS http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=978395&kbln=en-us
• Start the update on the server that hosts the central admin pages and proceed with every other server in farm.
• Continue with it on each server in your SharePoint farm

After applying the preceding updates, run the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard or “psconfig –cmd upgrade –inplace b2b -wait” in command line.

Note!  This needs to be done on every server in the farm with SharePoint installed.
