If you are developing with Visual Studio 2005, take a look at ClickOnce:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/net.../aa497348.aspx

If you deploy your programs with clickonce, you can configure them to
check for updates periodically, and they can update themselves from a web
site that you specify, which you might place at the same server that you are
using for the webservice.

Because I have a custom installer I also have a custom updater. It's
basically some files in a database on a server someplace with 2 pages. One
page downloads a list of current files and their last update times, the
target computer downloads this and checks to see if there are any missing
files/newer files. The second page allows access to the different files
based on some ID system allowing the target the ability to download the
files it has decided it wants.

Not overly elegant but it works well so far and you have complete control
over the update code

I'm using Framework 1.1..so, for now i don't have ClickOnce...

I started build a new App, that with the same WebService, checks the
most recent version on the server and download it with HTTP...

i think it will work...
