Remoting like Windows Update

[Andreas Hecker]

Hello all,
how can i solve the following problem:
a webclient requests a page - the page offers a downloadable component - the
client downloads and starts the component - the component sends data about a
specific application to the server - the server looks for a new version of
the application and sends the update to the client.

I think it is very similar to Microsofts windows update, but i dont know how
to develop the clients component which also runs as a server? Any Ideas???
