Look in Control Panel under Administrative Tools. If you have any of the
.NET frameworks installed, there should be an icon (or more) for it there.
IIRC, the only thing you'll see in Add/Remove programs is the service packs,
if any, that you have installed for the frameworks.

Check your "Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework" folder (and "Framework64" if
applicable). Each installed .NET version has its own subfolder there.
Alternatively, just run Windows Update and see which ones you have not yet
installed.

Oh ok, I don't remember so I might be wrong, I thought I read that from XP
SP2 onwards .net was included. Might the SP install just have deferred the
installation of .net until after the reboot?

I assume Windows 7 will include .net, so the % of machines with .net
installed should continue to rise.

Nope. I sometimes have to do this manually if WUS doesn't work for some
reason, and just installing SP3 is insufficient. No amount of rebooting
helps. You have to also manually install the .NET framework, which is a
seperate [240 MB] download.

Oh, sure. I meant will Windows Vista continue to increase once Windows 7
is out. ;-)

Probably, for a while. Especially in large companies there is always a big
delay between a new OS being released and that OS starting to be used. From
my experience a lot of places are starting to roll out Vista on new
machines, I suspect that trend will continue for at least another year or so
until they have tested Windows 7 sufficiently.

Certainly the company I work for has vowed to not even touch Vista. They
were going to wait 3 years, but not I think they're looking at going
straight to Windows 7.
Weird really. As soon as a new server OS comes out, they can't install
it fast enough. But desktop OS, they tend to wait until it's a few years
old before even testing it.
