What is DotNetInstaller.exe?

[Cubby]

My norton scan always finds this file on my computer and
when I check it and say fix it, nothing happens...The
full file name is
C:\programfiles\commonfiles\Installshield\professional\run
time\0701\Intel32\DotnetInstaller.exe
My computer is only one year old and I have had two
crashes so far...I use it only at home and I am the only
one that uses it...I don't do anything but
scan,frag,office work, email..Two games...Can someone
please help me to understand what is happening. I have
XPHE. Pen4-30% used 70%free.Lots of memory but no more
speed...

Nothing to worry about Cubby it is simply the install file for the .net
framework. The .net framework is required for many of the newer software,
including, if you have it Office suite 2003. Without the software simply
will not install or run.

Thank you, I needed to hear that it wasn't me doing
something that would hurt my computer...I did try to
update my office; but I don't have my cd that it came
with, I stepped on it. so all I have is a copy.Is there
someithing that I can do about my speed, I'm not fast at
typing but when I do work in my word, I type faster then
the words appear on the paper?
