JOOI, was it embedded into the SP install or was it a separate package on
the CD/DVD? I've never heard of MS rolling things like that into service
packs before, and generally they employ a principal of "reduced surface
area" to protect the OS against exploits, i.e. they tend to shy away from
installing anything that's not a bug-fix or security patch as part of a
service pack.
If they've taken a different route with .NET then so much the better -
that's one addition I *would* like to see moved to the Critical Updates
section!
