Cool.  Would the download program provide information about the updates so
people can download only what they want instead of the latest version?  Why
would someone not want all of the latest parts?

  I've already started writing the program, so far it only downloads the
list of files and checks for the missing ones. If I have enough time, I
might have something working tomorrow or maybe next week.

  I wasn't going to give the user a list of missing parts to download, I
don't think it's worth it. Do you really want it ? I was simply going to
display a message box "xx New Parts and xx Updated parts, total of xx
Kb. Do you want to download now ?".

Parts downloads probably should still be there - for OSes other than Windows
and also for people who the download program does not work for.

  And it's also faster to download a big zip file than several small
files.
