Hmm, I remember downloading .NET Framework 1.1 (I think it was for a
MOD editing program for Crysis - XSI6 Mod Tool), and now it's changed to
version 2.0, so that must have been a silent install, or it was included in
a gen win update, but if in the gen win update, then it never mentions it in
the dialogue. Hmm, confusing.
Thanks anyway Darren. :)

I've seen this many times in real life also from the "toughest"
people, this leads me to conclude that Humans are a lot more sensible
than we suppose, this is because we try hard not to show it. So if you
don't consider your proxy feelings you're probably offending him/her adn
that person probably will try not to show it and keep a resentment
against you.
I think is true when people say that humans are not logical.
Cheers.

It might have come along with a program you installed from CD or something,
or with a Windows service pack, like generic XP SP2. It obviously comes
along if you install development environments. It's possible it comes with
Windows Update too - I just don't remember.
