I have only seen an updated webinstaller so far. The only new thing was an included Bingbar installer (I'd call this adware).

According to Microsoft, the latest Redist is still June 2010. The dxwebsetup.exe file from november is not a redist. All solutions integrated into WSUSOU must be entirely self-contained. No downloads from the web are allowed, as WSUSOU is meant for PCs which have not (yet) been connected to the internet.

Ihad tested the November webinstaller which had previously been updated with the June2010 files, neither on XP, 2k3, Vista nor on 7 was anything installed. Just the new bing bar installer popped up.

There's not option to "make log". It'll be created anyway.
I just suggested to have a look at the log before you claim to have installed an antiquated version...

Please read the posts again and then you will find the answer, but this evening i'm happy and so....
The log will be saved here: %SystemRoot%\wsusofflineupdate.log
%SystemRoot% is your Windows directory, f.e. on XP it's normally C:\Windows.
