So how do you ensure the user is running the loader and not the local EXE? Have you taken the precaution of adding versioning logic to the app startup and every operation to make sure they are all running the latest and greatest? It is a common flaw in the loader approach and one I have been burned on when taking over projects from other developers. I often see the recommendation to move to this approach, but rarely see people explain some of the pitfalls. I am not saying it is a bad approach, all I am saying is it has its flaws and overhead to consider.
