Each time I tried to use the auto-update to update the Windows version of Instantbird it downloads a 9 MB package.

No problem with the Linux version...

Today it has downloaded only 760Ko for me (on windows), anything that changed ?
Or maybe just a random thing ?

I think we should either resolve this as WORKSFORME or morph it into a "Make partial updates available for the last 2 nightly builds." bug.

Actually, this is how it works now.
