To start off, you would launch the executible and it'd bring up a simple form. Upon loading the executible, it would check for a registry entry which gives you a path, including a exe, you would need to extract the path (remove the [login to view URL] from it), and append a subdirectory onto it. If the directory/entry doesnt exist it would give the user an error and then close. The form would contain the title of our website, and a link to it. There would be 2 buttons below this labeled "Submit Data" and "Launch Game". Ok, when they click Submit Data, it would open a secure FTP connection to our server, and upon connection, create a folder w/ a unique name (md5 a timestamp/computer name or something), it would then upload the contents of one directory, and a file from another directory (subdirectories of the one i explained in the beginning), to this newly made folder. It would close the connection, and disable the "Submit Data" button, upon clicking "Launch Game" it would end the program and launch the executible found in the registry explained in the beginnning.
