QuestionAuto-update Manager Pin

Hey all,

Couple questions for this topic. Firstly, can someone tell me if it's "legal" to update files for my application (stored completely within the folder specified during installation) without prompting the user?

Secondly, I had two avenues I was considering going with this.
A) Keep track of all files in the folder by CRC32, post to a website which checks against the database to see if it matches the latest file, if not, download and overwrite (or if non-existing, just download of course).
B) Keep a tar ball on the server and check the Application.ProductVersion of the application against the server, if it's not the correct version, Process.start() my update manager, close the application (update manager will wait until the process is closed), download the tar ball, and extract (force overwrite).

I think option B) is the easier option in terms of managing, however, I cannot find a way to tar/untar a folder. C# has GZip and Deflate which, I guess, are fine for single files, but not folders. I found 2 libs out there (vwm-cvs and SharpZip, I think), but have found limited documentation. I'd like to just be able to include a dll and be on my way, or use existing features of the framework (optimal).

Any suggestions on a better way to do this or how to make one of these ways work and remain manageable?

Thanks!

Mike
