>As I responded earlier, this file is installed in the windows directory. The one thing that I need to know: given that I know the location of the file, is it possible to have a program running on the server that will automatically update this file without telling them where it is and without the necessity of them having to download it?

Yeah. It's called magic. <s>

An ActiveX control may work, but it's certainly not without a download.
