my most recent win xp update (NET frame) will not inst

[bilyt]

hi, windows xp 2002 sp2- auto updates on.

my last update (ms .NET frameworks 1.1 sp1) came up for an update- i believe
my computer rebooted itself before the update/install completed & now the
update icon keeps showing up in systray..but it will not install. if i click
it to install..it will run (green lines moving) but in end will not install.
if i click "custom" & choose not to install..the update icon will always
re-appear in systray.

how do i fix this- either make it complete the install or permanently skip
this install but keep autoupdates on??

please help!!
thanks!

Go to Add/Remove Programs with "show updates" checked and uninstall all .net
framework versions from 3.5 down to 1. Then turn your antivirus program off
temporarily and reinstall, restarting as necessary. Remember not to turn
your anti-virus program on until all updates are completed. You can also
visit MS Update website to download the .net framework updates manually. I
don't believe .net framework 3.5 is available yet on MS Update. To check
that you have all required updates installed you can run the Belarc Advisor
when you are finished :
