After many times of auto-update i've seen one thing. I dont have permanent connection to Internet - I must rise it manually (PPPoE). After it (when i get connection), I must terminate iMON and start it again. Only after this manipulations autodownload starting work. Can U add feature to check update when iMON can ping site with autoupdate or simply add button "check update"?
And can U make possible to download update and save it to folder, that in next time I can manually update file-by-file to the latest version? Resume of downloadin is welcome too, coz not all get wideband connection.

Dear ShIvADeSt,
Adding "Check update" button to the iMON Manager > Option > Version/Update page is needed for the not-always online environment. We'll add it to our To Do List.
For the file-by-file update is not good idea. Because there's not only file copy but also other things like registry changes and so on. Instead, we are considering support the executive file(.exe). Download update patch exe file and run to update iMON. We'll add it to our To Do List too.
Thanks a lot,

Great, it's all i want ^^
May be You'll add resumin for updates downloadin? Sometimes when update is downloadin I have disconnect and I must download update again. Somesteps for resuming
1. Updater get checksum (md5 or something like) of file for 10 parts (file split for 10 parts and for each part calculated checksum) calc and file-link
2. Update starts downloading
3. If disconnect then calculate checksum of last part, if all ok then start downloading from next part (move offset to next position).
4. Calculate checksum of whole file.
10 parts - is only for example, may be more or less.

Dear ShIvADeSt,
OK, you mean that we need to consider the bad network condition where network connection can be broken during download and the resume download feature is needed. This feature has somewhat more difficulty to be gotten compared to simply add the 'check update' button. We'll add this feature to our To Do List with future release.
Thanks a lot,
