I'm developing a freeware WinForms app and plan to make the application
downloadable from my web site. How do I ensure that the user has the .NET
framework installed? Am I supposed to point users to a link @ Microsoft's
site from which they can download the framework? Or is there a way to get my
MSI file to automatically install the framework if it's not already
installed? If so, would this require me to bundle the entire framework in my
MSI??

Your .NET friend,

Look at the MSDN site. There is an article on bootstrapping the .NET
Framework to your app.

Is that seriously what they call it? A "boot strap"? :)

Ok, well, I'll check it out! Thanks!
