I'm not going to do any more of your homework for you. Seek and ye
shall find...
BTW, .NET framework is installed with many apps, video adapters,
etc,etc. I doubt you did not have .NET installed when you began to have
the problem
Disable "BITS" and "Automatic Updates"(temporarily) in
Services and see if the issue is resolved. Post your problem on the
Zone Alarm forum, as well. It has been discussed there many times...

2. Save the file to your Desktop
3. Please double click the file msicuu2.exe on the Desktop to install
this
tool on your computer.
Step 2: Remove .NET Framework 1.1
