Hello! How i can get connect to internet and download something over there? I try found some tutorial with google but anything.

I think if i have page like:
http://www.somepage.com/newest_version.txt
and that file inside is:
2

we put that in variable like "NewestUpdate"

Then we look our program version and if it's different download new version.


Or is some easy way?
