    Hi All,
    Can someone fill me in on whether I need to install the MS .netframework 1.1 patch on my PC?...I have read up on the article, but I am still confused about whether I need it or not.

    I have W98se, IE6.

    Thanks!

    I haven't installed it ...... :eek: ...... well, to be honest I did but I ghosted it off right away. It resulted in another user account being created, forcing me to log in (no password, just clicking) on each start, which I didn't like.

    I would assume that if something requires .NET, then it will prompt for installation.

    That's my trouble...I'm not sure if I need it or not.

    I have MS Money installed, and I have (2) MS Passport ID's...I guess it would be a good question for MS. :D

    There was a discussion abou the .net framework and the related software on the boards some time ago. Search the forums. I'll look later on to and post back if I find it. I haven't had a need for it yet.



    MODS....other software?

    Unless you've installed a program that requires the .net framework you don't have to install it. If it's a downloaded program they'll usually tell you on the webpage that it's required. If it's a program on a cd bought in a store, it'll more than likely have it on the cd and be installed along with the program. Rest assured that if you install a program that requires it and you don't have it, it'll let you know about it. Either when you install it or when you try to run the program.

    I have MS Money installed, plus I have (2) .net Passport ID's...I wrote MS about this, and they talked like I didn't have a need for it :confused: ....So I guess I'll not worry about it.
