hi terrence,
thanks to your experience, i was just now able to complete the update
process. it didn't quite go the same way, but you gave me an idea, and that
appears to have worked.

        Since there seem to have been a lot of difficulties with the update,
I thought I'd post my observations in the hope that someone might benefit.
        I started the update sometime around 8:30 last night (10:30
central). I had one flopped attempt, which was fixed by removing the update
folder. The second download was successful, but it didn't start updating
automatically. However, I was able to find the .upd file in my updates
folder, and start the update manually. Thus, 1.06 build 28 was installed.
        Next came the registration process. This went smoothly once I woke
up enough once I realized I forgot to turn on wireless. I registered without
a hitch.
        1.1 proved just a bit more challenging. The first time I made the
mistake of double-clicking the status key, so was only hearing "system
updater". I assumed this meant there was a problem so I started over,
deleting all my tmp.. directories. The second go-round took quite a while,
but it did download. Like 1.06-28, the update didn't start immediately. 
I attempted, as I had with 1.06-28, to find it in the updates folder, with
no luck. 
I did, however, find it in one of the tmp folders the update process had
created; it was a .lsi file. I hit select, and the update went without a
hitch. I love the enhancements! 
"Clicking" links was something I'd really wanted badly, and it works!
