1.Downloads information about the available divisions, purposes and languages
2. Requests a list of files matching the selected options
3. Checks the downloaded list of files against its own
4. Deletes any previously downloaded files which are not on the list

I think you can not expect someone to write your software. Ask more specific questions. Where are your problems, what kind of software is this? You need help on architecture or code?

A good common advice is: approach your project step by step. First think about the platform/architecture of your software (winforms... could mean a lot, think about (web)services, WCF, DBs, whatever.) Then create some kind of quick prototype solving all the little technical problems you have (depends on your experience, how to request the informations, how to find/download/delete etc. the files, how to do the searching and indexing, ...). After that you can think about the problems the prototype had with your architecture (maybe you have to re-think some parts of both). If everthing seems to fit together stabilize your code (refactor, document, (unit)tests etc.) and establish a rigid build/release/versioning routine (source control!), before adding all the features you want in your software. At any stage you may have to ask for help - maybe her on CP :-) - but do it with a specific problem...

Maybe you know all this, maybe you disagree, but for sure you should ask better questions :-)

P.S. What you mean with "syncronization" some kind of rsync?

did you have a look at rsync (search on wiki)? A friend used it as backend for his forms-client (he just controled the console app, but this was not trivial as far as I remember). but at the end it worked very nicely...
