User dialog / input from ini file
I've run into writers block and can't for the life of me figure out how to do this.

All I want to do is:
1)Show the user the various versions available in the attached ini file.
2)Get their selection
3)Download their selection (I know how to do this)
4)Execute the new installer (I know how to do this)

ini looks like this
[Auctioneer]
ver=3.2.0.555
[Unstable]
ver=3.2.0.0734
url=http://auctioneeraddon.com/dl/AuctioneerComplete/auctioneerpack-3.2.0.0734.exe
[Alpha]
ver=3.2.0.0729
url=http://auctioneeraddon.com/dl/AuctioneerComplete/auctioneerpack-3.2.0.0729.exe
[Beta]
ver=3.2.0.671
url=http://auctioneeraddon.com/dl/AuctioneerComplete/auctioneerpack-3.2.0.0671.exe
[Release]
ver=3.2.0.0620
url=http://auctioneeraddon.com/dl/AuctioneerComplete/auctioneerpack-3.2.0.0620.exe
