ship with your application to your customers. It allows you to insure your customers always have the latest versions of your software.

How it works:

1. You include the UpdateLive utility with your install kit
2. You place the individual files you want kept up to date on your web server. You can also add advertising messages and update history
3. When the customer runs your install kit, you call the UpdateLive utility
   • UpdateLive checks to see if the customer can make an internet connection
   • UpdateLive asks (optional - this can be invisibly done) the customer if he/she wants to check for updates
   • UpdateLive checks the web site, checks to see which files (if any) need updating - files can be checked by version number or date.
   • UpdateLive shows the customer what is new and presents your list of changes, then asks if he/she wants to get that update (again this can be done invisibly without asking.)
   • UpdateLive then downloads the appropriate files, creates a backup directory (to allow reversal of the process) registers any OCX's if necessary, runs any Exe's if necessary, and tells the user everything is ready.
4. You can also call UpdateLive from your application to check for updates on a on a periodic basis (every 30 days, etc), or add a Shortcut to the Windows Start Menu to allow the customer to call UpdateLive utility directly when he or she wants.
