Some feedback:

• "I wanna to" should just be "I want to"
• "newwest" should be "newest"
• You can automatically detect the version of paintball currently installed from the registry
• Why is the app 650kb?
• It might be better if the app downloaded the installer and ran it itself instead of just opening a browser

Good start though, keep it up :)

Well.. sorry for my bad english ;) . I just add to auto check the version. This app isn't so big than you think, when i compile it, it takes ... 14 Mb :D , but i think know to repair that. Well, i'm not sure about auto downloading and running, it can make a lot of errors, but i think, tomorrow i will add most of features u want :) .

Well, error -22 means, the vercheck.ini file was downloaded, but it is corrupted. If error appear again, list file named "vercheck.ini". Anyway, i upload newer version, i repaired bug with bad integer conversion, and add version on form caption. Download: look up.

Made an icon for it, not too great but it has UPDATER under the paint splatter. Might not be better, but it's a start. And great job on the program!

EDIT:
I see no way to download files from sourceforge, then using that program have no sense.
Version 1.4 is protably last version, because jitspoe wants to integrate updater to paintball, so i won't create new versions.
I will no longer support that program, download list was lastly updated, b30 is last supported build. New builds won't be presented.

Thanks everyone for using that small program :) .
