Code or API for Automatic Updates? 1

[RexHeadlong]

Please forgive if this is the wrong forum.

We are going to be creating a Windows-based .NET app in C#. One of the features is similar to MS "Automatic Updates" or the anti-virus "LiveUpdate" utility that will automatically check for, and/or download and install data updates.

I'm hoping not to re-invent the wheel, so does anybody know of any open source or API that exists to do the scheduling and the download? I realize it's probably not difficult to do ourselves, but this project has a lot of features and not a lot of time, so any time savings is a plus.

Thanks in advance for any help.
