Re: Unable to install Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.1

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms07-040.mspx?pubDate=2007-07-10

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Related to This Security Update

" This security bulletin says that .NET Framework 3.0 is non-affected. How does .NET Framework 3.0 relate to the previous versions that are affected?

Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 is a superset of .NET Framework 2.0. Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 listed as Non-Affected Software in this security update refers to the four new technologies added as the superset to the .NET Framework 2.0. These technologies are: Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), Windows Workflow Foundation (WF), Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), and Windows CardSpace. The vulnerabilities addressed in this security update do not affect any of the four specific .NET Framework 3.0 technologies. Developers wishing to learn more about the .NET Framework 3.0 and it’s relation to previous version may refer to the following .NET Framework 3.0 Versioning and Deployment MSDN article. Additional information for .NET Framework 3.0 may also be found in the following MSDN article.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/netframework/aa663309.aspx


I only have .NET Framework 3.0 installed. Why am I being offered the security update?

There is no security update targeting the WPF, WF, WCF, and CardSpace technologies that together make up Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 as they are not affected by any of the vulnerabilities in this security update. However, every installation of Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 also includes .NET Framework 2.0, which is an affected product in this security update and as such this update is offered to all systems where applicable. "

..NET 1.1 SP1 and KB928366 have ***nothing*** to do with the above.

I repeat, a Security update for .NET Framework 1.1 is intended for that specific runtime *only*. It does not matter if there are other runtimes installed. Sec updates for those other runtimes are *specific*, too.

*The* most common installation issue installing .NET Frameworks, Service Packs, and Security updates for them are directly related to the installed antivirus/security software.

If you have .net framework 2.0 or 3.0 installed you do not need this update, you should have installed kb928365 already.



What Utter Nonsense. Security updates for a specific .NET Framework have NOTHING to do with any other version of .NET Frameworks that are installed.
If .NET Framework 1.1 is installed then one should install all Security updates for it that are not superseded by any other Security updates for it.

Thank you, Mow Green for your comments. I suggest that we attempt to resolve our disagreement by asking the OP to install the Belarc Advisor version 7.2t, available from this hyperlink : http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html . It will show what MS security updates are missing from his system. I am sure that you are already familiar with this useful service, Mow Green. If the OP will post back his result here it may assist us in helping him to resolve this issue.
I would still like to know whether the OP has .Net Framework 2.0/3.0 installed in order to help him solve his problem.


Thank you again, Mow Green [MVP]. Here is the original security bulletin : http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms07-040.mspx?pubDate=2007-07-10 . It is the same security update and it only has to be installed once. That is also why Belarc Advisor does not show that kb928366 is missing on systems that have .Net Framework 2.0/3.0 installed, as long as kb928365 is already installed. After all, you cannot install .Net Framework 2.0 without already having .Net Framework 1.0/1.1 installed.
Since the OP has not posted back,I assume that he has solved his problem, possibly as a result of our replies to his post. However, since so many people have had problems with security updates to .Net Framework since July, I am almost certain that he will not be the last.
