no touch deployment .net framework download

[sidd]

Hi all,
we are planing to use no touch deployment in our project.
i wanted to know ,when user tries to download our 'no touch
application',is it possible to detect some how if client machine has
..net frame work or not.
if machine does not have .net frame work redirect them to a URL to
download it.
i would prefer to do this without using any client side control as far
as possible.

also i wanted to confirm some points
1)it should be possible to push (deploy) .net frame work over
network.
so in other words a network admin should be able to deploy .net
framework on all machine with in a network at one time.

yes /NO?

2)its also possible to configure permissons at enterprise level.
so if i want to give certain permissons to intranet zone ,i should be
able to do that at enterprise level and then deploy them in one shot
to all machines.

it other words i don't have to give permisson to intranet zone on each
individual client machine.

YES/NO?

thanks
sidd

Can I deploy security policy across an enterprise network?

But if .net framework is not installed, the managed code in the ie url
address bar will not execute. So it can not check the .NET framework
version.
