You can pull down a web page to check for a version in about four lines of C/C++ through libcurl. That includes initialisation and cleanup. Omaha sounds good too.

Up to you though.


I agree with this, I wrote a very simple updater(checks for an update very quickly and then downloads the update using a batch file) in about a day and polished it up with about another day of work...so, 10-15 hours total probably.  I'm also willing to share my code on how I did it, should you be interested...it's ugly, but will definitely get the job done.

I apologize if this was already mentioned, I kind of breezed through the thread, but what platform are you developing for, with what tool and what are you attempting to deliver (exe, swf, ipa, etc)?
