Hi
I have managed to get the UAB working but only with the
validation turned off (turning it off in the config file
that is).
Can anyone provide me with any help on how to use the
validation side of this. I am ideally looking for a step
by step guide as to how to use the validation. I have
attempted this myself but get the following error:
"The server Manifest located at {mypath} failed
validation. It is being deleted; its signature did not
match the signature of the file that was downloaded."
On a more general note, it would nice if Microsoft could
provide more of a structured help (aimed at developers who
do not want to modify the block, just use it). It is
great once you know how to use it, but you seem to have to
work it out for yourself!
Paul.

This is the usage of a CosoleClient1(sample).
