Check for Updates

Hi There,

I've developed 2 programs for a group of people, and they include installers etc...I'm wondering how I can implement a 'Check for Updates' feature into the program, and an alert system.

Firstly, 'Check for Updates' will basically look for an update in a folder from a web server; if there is a higher version (somehow it will check?) it will replace the EXE in Program Files.

Secondly, the alert system; I've included a PHP Web page hidden in the program; and the page included refreshes x amount of times, to check for alerts; like in a normal internet browser, then displays the java alert (Java with PHP). How can I get it to work as it doesnt seem to? Must not refresh, or load at all...anyone?

Thanks for your help! I've never used Check for updates before thats why I really need help :-) Thanks!
