Testers Needed for New Auto-Updater

OS: Tiny XP Beast Edition
Account: Admin
Result: Everything works except one thing. I'm not even sure if it's digsby, but myspace won't authenticate.

OS: Windows Vista
Account: Administrator
UAC: On
Result: Worked

OS: Windows XP MCE SP3
Account: Admin User
Result: Worked Perfectly

OS: Windows XP SP2
Account: Admin
Result: Success

(I love it that I can now actually use my computer while it's downloading the auto-update -- before my hard drive would churn incessantly and I wouldn't really be able to do anything else)

OS: Windows XP SP2
Account: Admin
Result: Worked

OS: Wndows XP SP2
Account: Admin
Result: Worked

Windows XP MCE, all RTM updates
Account was part of the Administrators group
New updater succeeded

Same here.  I think the new installation first deletes the program then re-extracts it. 
Surely it should just extract and overwrite the main program executable and whatever else happens to have been updated.

OS: Windows Vista Business SP1
Account: Admin
UAC: Off
Result: Success

OS: Windows XP SP2
Account: Admin
Result: Success

OS: Windows XP

OS: Windows Vista Home Basic SP1
Account: Admin
UAC: On
Result: Success

Loaded up, just like I left it.   Prefs and all.

OS: windows vista SP1
account: admin
UAC: off
result:worked

after the update, it hung on the connecting screen for a while. i cut the process through task manager. I relaunched the app and everything worked great

OS:Windows XP home edition SP2
Account: Admin
Result: Worked

No issues directly related to the update appeared to come up, though I did notice that many of my offline contacts were listed as "Unknown" for their status.  I haven't seen that before, but I haven't looked, either.  Signing off and on with my AIM account fixed it.

Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit
Administrative account with UAC enabled
Result:  Appears to have worked, but Digsby didn't say "Update Successful" when it restarted like it used to.  Also, does this fix the problem where Digsby stayed elevated after an update instead of restarting as limited?

EDIT:  I'm running Service Pack 1, in case that makes a difference.

Result: worked, lost custom skins

a while after installation, i had 100% CPU usage problem (digsby is running to slow) a log was sent. I guess there are still CPU issues present, not sure what I was doing at the time, flicking through tabs, talking to invisible and online contacts.

That would be from the installer. Sorry, I'll see if I can change that.

That was the plan, but according to McoreD it still ends up with admin priveleges. We'll look at it on Monday
