I just installed a new hard drive in a laptop and somehow the registry 
entries for .NET were messed up. Supposedly I could uninstall all the 
NET versions, but then I could not reinstall any of them as some 
registry entries were erroneous. I found the following site with a last 
resort .NET removal tool. As a last resort I downloaded and used the 
tool. Worked great as I was then able to reinstall .NET.

Just in case you need it.

>> I'm running a Dell laptop with Windows XP.  Everytime I turn on my laptop, I get a notice that a Windows XP update is available: Windows XP (KB967715).  It's about resolving an auto run problem.  I download and install this update and the next time I turn on the computer, I am notified again that the same update is available.  So I do it again.  And so everytime I turn on the computer, this happens.
