Yes. No. You could have removed a great deal of Uninstall files before you
installed the latest Service Pack but you can't do so now, at least not
without uninstalling the latest SP first.

If you did not install .Net Framework yourself but found
that .Net is on your PC then each version was installed
and used by a software application you installed an
therefore you should not delete any of the versions.
If however "you installed" for example .Net version 3.5
thinking it was better than or an upgrade to .Net 2.0
which may have already been on your PC, then the
answer is "yes" you can uninstall 3.5 because you
installed it, but "no" for version 2.0 because a software
application you installed requires 2.0
Also a question:
If you look at the Add or Remove programs list
do any of the .Net entries have the letters "SDK"
as part of the .Net name?

If someone downloads .NET 3.5, it includes version 2, 3 and service
packs for them (not all sp's), so uninstalling it will remove those also
if they weren't there before.

If they downloaded and installed all versions of .Net they
would see the following in the Add/Remove list:
Add/Remove Framework v1.0.3705 = 16.13MB
Add/Remove Framework 1.1 = 16.13MB
Add/Remove Framework 1.1 = Hotfix 16.13MB
Add/Remove Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 = 186MB
Add/Remove Framework 3.0 Service Pack 2 = 168MB
Add/Remove Framework 3.5 SP1 = 28.98MB
If they however had no prior versions installed and just
downloaded an installed .Net 3.5 and SP1 they would see:
Add/Remove Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 = 186MB
Add/Remove Framework 3.0 Service Pack 2 = 168MB
Add/Remove Framework 3.5 SP1 = 29.13MB

That's what I said. Your example wasn't clear and I was making sure
readers understood that installing 3.5 doesn't JUST install 3.5. And I
don't think sp1 is included with 3.5, because after I install it on
workstations, an MS Update has the SP for it.

If you uninstall .Net 3.5 and uninstall .Net 3.0
it will not uninstall .Net 2.0.
Each version has it own entry in the Add Remove list.
