PA Bear,
Windows update put back .net 1.1 and 1.1 service pack. So it is back
just
like it was.

Uh-oh...
Sammy, are you now running WinXP SP3? If so, there's an ongoing bug
involving .NET Framework versions not being offered by Windows Update
after doing a "clean install" of WinXP and then installing SP3. See
this
recent article by my colleague Susan Bradley:

[I shall ask Susan if she might assist you in this thread, Sammy.]

I recently reloaded xp and noticed this Windows card space in control

and wondered where it came from. And I saw it came from .net 3 and I
just
noticed how big they were, 1 and 2 and was curious. Like when you
download a
new version of java it leaves the old one. I let windows load
everything
except I.E 7. It was an old copy of xp pro before sp1 so there was a
lot
of
stuff it was wanting to download. Thank you both and I will read up on
it
so
as not to ask such a foolish question. I am going to check out this
card
space.
None of them needs to be installed unless you want to run an
application that needs that one. The .net framework version 3 does
not
replace all earlier versions, and you need the correct one for the
program(s) you want to run.
Does .net 1, 2, 3, all need to be installed? Or should 1 and 2 be
removed
and 3 installed? I am looking but can not find anything on it?
