Do I have .Net Framework installed?

If I don't have, then why do I see a .NET Framework section in "Security
Settings", in my IE 7 ("Loose XAML", and "XPS Documents", for example)...
If I have it, then will Windows Update it (at all [either patch, or
uninstall, and install a higher version])?

I have XP Home Edition, with Office XP with FrontPage, Developer Edition
(and IE 7).
I don't remember seeing it in Security Settings until after upgrading to IE 7.

Thanks in advance...especially because of the upcoming Update patch(es).
 
And, I don't have a .NET Framework entry in Control Panel, or it's Add/Remove
programs

Hi,

You probably don't have .Net installed as all version should be visible in
Add/Remove Programs. You can also check C:\Windows\Microsoft.Net. If there
is no Microsoft.Net folder, you don't have .Net. If you have .Net installed
there should be folders inside for each version you have installed.
v1.0.3705, v1.1.4322, v2.0.50727, v3.0, v3.5.

If you have one or more versions installed. Windows update will update .Net
with security patches etc, but not add newer versions. You can still add
..Net versions manually through optional updates or run separate .Net
redistributables.
