Maybe steal a source code from somewhere? :P
Isn't it is simple as defining an OBJECT with a codebase? If IE doesn't have object, ask user for permission to pull from codebase URL? The publisher and stuff is stored as a resource in the binary at the codebase URL (like the VERSION resource type).
Pure rocket science, that. ;)
