I myself am not sure about the DirectX thing. Never had to even give either thing a thought before...i dunno
The way you find the latest (WMP, DirectX and more) is to go to Microsofts Update web page (link in your Start Menu) and do the Custom updates. The same way MTU has always said to do it in the instructions for setting up Hoster. This should be done everytime you upgrade Hoster.
DirectX is an Audio Control package part of Windows. The Custom updates will tell you if there is a newer version that you need to install.
For WMP basically it is version 11 for XP as the highest, and version 12 for Vista and Windows 7. This does not mean there haven't been any fixes or updates to any of those versions which is why you need to check too.
