Requirements/Questions (wodAppUpdate)

Hello,

I'm very interested in your product, but need more information
about (technical) requirements.
Many of my customers have highly-secured Windows environments
in which they have almost no rights to write to e.g. registry
or windows directory etc. Any requirements here?

From reading the online help, I was able to identify below:
* R/W to application directory (for e.g. temp files).
Question: is the name of the upgrading executable reproducable in the case the user wants to manually start the update later (not closing the application then)?
Or is it, that as long as an update is not cancelled, the application has to be closed (of course) for **immediate** update?
* Internet settings of the system are used - the help says.
Are these overwritable/configurable within the component (if user is e.g. behind firewall/uses proxy and needs other settings) or maybe in a later version of it?
Example: core system internet settings may be read-only, but user needs to manually enter proxy credentials when going outside of company network.
* How is user authentication handled exactly? I.e. when using password protected server directory, what happens upon cancelled/wrong authentication? I do not see an error event or errorcode property.
* I haven't downloaded/installed the evaluation copy, but is there a Delphi (5 or 2006) example available, too?

Thanks a lot in advance for any further insight.

Regards,
Tobias
