MS. NET framework 1.1 & (" " Hotfix) {Can I remove this from Add and Remove)
MS Framework 2.0

MS compression Client Pack 1.0 for windows XP {Can I remove this from Add
and Remove)

MS User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack 1.0


MSXML 4.0 SP2, " " Parser and SDK, MSXML 6.0 Parser

Do these have a useful meaning to the computer?

What does it mean when there isn't a size shown for a program in the Add &
Remove. could it be because the file is damaged or something
 
These are not questions that can be answered with a short explanation.
suffice to say, yes they are needed.
other than that, do some research on them

Google is a good resource to research these issues.

..Net Framework is only needed if you have a program that uses it. Only you
can determine if that's the case. It is not needed natively for XP to
function. If a particular version of .Net is needed then any service packs
for it are needed.

Don' worry about the size issue or when last used. That is unreliable.
It's presence or absence doesn't mean something is wrong or right with it.
 
one possible need is if you have an ati video card.
NET is needed to install control panel for it.

if not the case GOOGLE would make a good friend.
