RE: [SOLUTION] You cannot install KB928366 (.Net Framework 1.1 securit

This failed to work for me. I went through the steps outlined and the
KB928366 installer did ask for a location for the files. After I supplied it,
the installation ran for a minute or so and then said "Info 9006: This patch
cannot be installed because it requires Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service
Pack 1 (SP1). No Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 SP can be detected on this
computer..."
