I'd be fairly confident in believing that the update was triggered by the
presence of the ADUC snap-in.
From KB967280 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/957280) the two files updated
are NTDSA.DLL and SP3RES.DLL.
Typically 'detection' is accomplished by noting that an older version of a
file that needs to be updated is physically present on the system.
You should be able to easily verify this by searching one or more of those
systems for those two files.
The current file information should be:
Filename Version Filesize Filedate
Ntdsa.dll 5.0.2195.7178 939,280 05-Sep-2008 04:32 x86
Sp3res.dll 5.0.2195.7151 6,276,608 29-Feb-2008 13:26 x86
If you don't have those versions of the files on your system(s), then they
need the update.
