I had actually already tried --update but got an error about get_iplayer 
not being writable:

C:\Program Files\get_iplayer>get_iplayer.cmd -u
get_iplayer v2.79, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis

ERROR: get_iplayer is not writable - aborting update (maybe a package 
manager was used to install get_iplayer?)

C:\Program Files\get_iplayer>

I'm not sure what isn't writable, none of the the files in C:\Program 
Files\get_iplayer are set to read-only...

Thanks!
