Problem installing .Net Framework Version 1.1 Service Pack 1 in Vi

I have been trying to download for 4 months and it fails every time. I have
tried all the recommended steps and even cleaned it up w Installer cleanup
and still no luck. What am I doing wrong?

First, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923100 (ignore the title).

If no joy, see this recent post by my colleague MowGreen:
