     Ah, I see, so why didn't I get it anyway? I've been watching for it as 
I'm using FF a lot now.

  Which version of the .NET framework do you have installed, if any? Maybe
Windows just hasn't updated your .NET framework?

The extension is installed by .NET 3.5 SP1.

   Thanks for that, so I should be expecting it sometime in the near future 
then?

   (Have to admit that I didn't read every sentence in this thread, but .NET 
3.5 SP1 did catch my eye).

    BTW, how are .NET updates installed? Just checking in CP and I've had 
several .NET updates but have never had any dialogue message about it, so I 
assume they come with the general win updates?

I don't know. It shows up in Windows Update right now for me. Perhaps you 
need to already have Net 3.5 installed before the SP1 gets offered.

Rather, the updates are. I'm not sure about the new releases (like Net 3.x 
vs Net 2.x).

      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.
