Hi Mike,
Thanks for your feedback. I've seen this problem before but I don't know
what it is. Something to do with the Microsoft installer system (which is a
bit stupid, I suspect).
To get around this, I have posted this file
http://www.pythianproject.org/arena/auclient.zip which contains the Auto
Update Client but without the installer. Just unzip the file wherever you
like and run AuClient.exe
I will try to remember to change the file in the Downloads area of our site
to use this file instead of the one with the installer.
Thanks,
Darryl
