Try this for autoupdate...

I've tried some different approaches to make the autoupdate work.

If I use the autoupdate.exe itself it works.
If I start the Flynet.exe from the same directory as the autoupdate resides and click OK it works too
If I start flynet.exe from a shortcut (anywhere else) and click OK nothing happens.

You might all try the same approaches.

Or DaKurt might check his code to see where flynet wants to start autoupdate.exe

A small addendum:

If you have the flynet.exe and the autoupdate,exe in a directory structure that doesn't contains spaces the autoupdate works.

DaKurt there's your bug. (I think)

Ah, so just add some " quotes " when you call the autoupdate.exe file if it's a space issue.

Another thing. Don't try to pin the flynet.exe to the startmenu (an XP-option) that certainly doesn't work.

I tried all of your methods and none of them worked for me.

Same here.
Running the auto update file brings up an error, running the client brings up an info window that says there's a new update. Clicking OK just shuts it down and clicking on cancel does the same thing.

Found the manual update, thanx :)

I might add that I run on a WinXP sp1 with .NET Framework 1.1 and 2.0 installed, I do not know which language the client or the autoupdate was written in, but that might make an influence too....
