If anyone knows the names of the files executed during autoupdate, that could mean that the autoupdater will work for me!!!
I added secondlife.com as trusted site in IE, and now the autoupdater runs, which is a good start, but it crashes with shellexecute failure near the end because the updating executable has not been added to Permitted Executables on this machine.

the last 4... in alpha-ish order were:
10E.exe
14D.exe
1E.exe (currently downloading 1.2.4)
41.exe
I dont have access to my other machine at the moment, but I dont think these are the same names I saw on it.
Therefore I'd assume (bad form I know) that it's actually a randomly generated name.
Which of course makes giving it permissions a little harder.
Sorry for the probably not great news.

The autoupdater picks a random filename for the download, and then attempts to run it to start the installer.
Odd that your IE settings would affect it, though.

I think it's actually a GPO lock-down policy, or similar. Basically there is a key in the registry containing a list of all authorized non-kernel/system executables.
This will make more sense if I tell you I'm in a cyber games cafe. Not the MMORPG market that it once was, but I do get a few people stopping and asking me what I'm playing.
