Forgot about this post:

Stylez, theres a program called wget that will auto get files for you so you might be able to use that to sync to a server to get updates.

Programmatically you'd want to use WinInet (which comes with Windows/Internet Explorer) probably. You can use WinInet to download files from HTTP/FTP servers, and I believe it offers asynchronous transfers as well (so your GUI could keep a progress bar updating as the download proceeds).

WGET is a cool tool though.
