The Microsoft .Net initiative started about 5 years ago. The first version
of the .Net platform came out about two years ago. ASP.Net is part of the
..Net platform.

PDC Summer 2000 was the first beta. Beta 1 followed about 6 months later.
Beta 2 came out in early summer of 2001, follwed by the RTM release of
Visual Studio .NET 2002 and the .NET Framework 1.0 release in February of
2002. Visual Studio .NET 2003 and the .NET Framework 1.1 came out a little
more than a year later.

Officially, there are two releases that are not beta, 1.0 and 1.1 (with
VS.NET 2002 and 2003 respectively).

ADO.NET is part of the .NET Framework Class Library (FCL), although it could
potentially be updated outside of .NET, as it is simply adjusting the
versions of some DLLs. It installs with the Framework, so you do not need
VS.NET to have ADO.NET.

I hope this is not confusing. .NET as a singular term really has little
meaning, as marketing has watered it down. Most often, you will see .NET
used to either mean the Framework or VS.NET.
