Here is an article that may help:
ClickOnce Deployment in .NET Framework 2.0 -
I've been playing with ClickOnce at work for an application that needs to be web enabled. Works great on development but like you, doesn't work in production with the same symptoms.
The problem is the zone of the web browser. If I use http://webserver.compa ny.com I'm in the Intranet zone and security is much more restricted there. If I go to http://webserver/ it places the deployment in the Internet zone and works fine. Same server, same deployment, different zones.
I read numerous articles on this and the solution is to strong name sign your code. Problem I have is, I have a third party dll that I can't sign so I can't strong name sign the project.
As long as you control ALL the code, you can sign your code and it should then work on your corporate intranet zone.
This link is a good article on ClickOnce and the problem/solution I describe above
