Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 will not install

After having no luck trying to load Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack
1 through automatic updates so I went direct and tried again with and got
another message as follows.. This patch Package could not be opened. Verify
that the patch exists and that you can access it or contact the application
vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer patch package

I have no idea of what to even look for, hope someone out there can help.
Thanks, P McCartney
