I do not know of one off-hand except for the standard ones like
FileZilla or something. But, these won't help you out of the box. You
would almost have to create one to work with your specific back-end. You
could however, grab an Open Source project from www.sf.net and then
modify it to additionally communicate to a web service or something for
the updates needed. That may reduce your R&D costs.

Like you said though, you may have issues with IT policies as well. I
had some issues a couple of years ago when I developed one for a client.
All of their business clients had issues with ports and protocols -- my
client was a Java WebStart client so I did not have much issue with
installations.

Good luck.
