Sorry for suggesting a proprietary devel package but, since we are
talking about Windows here, with Visual Studio 2005, you can
incorporate this auto-update feature with one-click!  I mean just
point-and-shoot-operation and no coding!  Literally
less-than-five-minutes job.  You just have to wrap your Win32 code in
a .NET component and that's it.  Setup is created automatically with
an option to include auto-update as well if you choose so.

Of course choosing MS.NET would mean incorporating MS.NET with the
setup (which is also an automatic option) or having the users to
download & install it as well.
