I want to download the latest .NET distributables. However the restrictions
that are in place on the network here at my work establishment is disabling
the ability to update through Windows Update. Is there an alternative
location whereby i would have the ability to download this update to
install? It is needed to run an small application.


Thanks for your time.

Hi

Select the ".NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable" link here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframewo...s/default.aspx

Hi

If I select that link I get here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframewo...work1_1redist/

and then I select the "IT Pros" link (do not select "General Users"
or you end up at Windows Update again) and I end up here:

Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
