Sven, I think this is twice now I have seen you give this answer to 
getting rid of the login window.  How does one know if the .NET 
Framework is needed?  If I have to ask, probably I don't, but does my 
computer need it to communicate, process, etc. in a passive way.  I 
don't need .NET....... to develop tools or web page activities or such 
like.  To date, like many, I am a user not a developer.  I looked at the 
site you provided; while I could read the words, I didn't get the warm 
fuzzies that I had "arrived" (grin) so I don't think I need .NET..... but don't some
programs I might use need it?

Hi Brenda,

Did you install "Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1" from Windows Update?
If so, do you need it? If you answered "Yes" and "No", you can uninstall it
from Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel. Restart and that should solve
the problem. You can read more about .NET Framework here:
