Does the framework need to be installed on the target machine for the exes
to
run or can the exe be linked statically so the target machine does not need
the 35 meg
framework install.

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/faq/#framework.required

Not sure where you get the 35 meg figure from. The 1.1 redistributable
is just under 24 meg. It may install to 35, but disk space is cheap
compared to download speed.

Yes.

So you want to statically link the 35 megs to your app so that every
user has to drag that along, even if he already has the .NET
framework??
