Some packages simply return with no error or output. Depends on machine and the package. The same package may work on some other machine.

Example: smplayer@AppVeyor

For some reason au_GetLatest fails without error when it executes $download_page.links ?!

Adding parameter to iwr UseBasicParsing seems to make it work.

To test I added UseBasicParsing to all update.ps1 script. This will also make updater to work on non GUI windows SO.

Now those packages worked but all Github packages were blocking (run never finishes it blocks on the same line again).

Reverted previous commit and added UseBasicParsing just on problematic AppVeyor packages.

It seems that iwr is totally buggy.

The resolution is not to use iwr when this problem arrives or not at all (because even if it works on one machine it may not on another)
