Latest WHQL'd drivers will always been on RHN bit.ly/virtio-win
So the latest ones today are here https://rhn.redhat.com/rhn/software/packages/details/Overview.do?pid=631726 

Latest source is http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers/Download_Drivers

Which points to http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/virtio-win/latest/images/bin/ which *should* have the latest signed (not whql'd) divers

But, it looks like they haven't been updated on that last link, so we'll fix that.
