AS far as I know clickonce won't do what you want.

One option would be to take the source for a file diff application and retrofit it to compare the bytes of your binaries (V1.0 & V1.1 for arguments sake).

You'll then have make an instructions file that explains how to turn V1.0 into V1.1 with the output of this differential program.

You'll then need to write an updater app, that takes the upgrade instructions and turns V1.0 into V1.1 with them.

This way only the changed bytes have been sent over the wire and not the entire program

Have a look at this: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/files/LPTextFileDiff.aspx

Hope this helps :-)
