Hi

We have a suite of programs that check for new versions at startup, and then download new versions to run if required. This is obviously a problem in Windows 7, when it is locked down as a 'standard user', as they can't write to the c:\program files directory and below. Anyone seen a example of an application that gets around with issue ?

Our applications are written in Delphi, but an example in any language would be useful.

Thanks in advance

Update:

We already have a system for determing whether a new version exists, the only problem is the download and install (if required), as this requires elevation. I can't think of a way that doesn't require an elevation prompt, or our users to reduce their security settings.

Update 2 :

I've asked a subsequent question, rather than adding a new one here
