.net 1.1

I do not know why it created a new user, but you can safely delete it.

Thanks, Jason.........that is peculiar - most folks will think that "product
1.1" replaces "product 1.0" :-)

I also note the .NET 1.1 was a 37Mb install on my Win XP Home.

It's by design

The .net framework 1.1 doesn't replace 1.0

I installed this update, and promptly uninstalled it because of some odd
behavior. The addition of the "ASP Machine A..." account hosed up the
way
I
had my machine configured - one user, guest account disabled. The boot
was
now asking for a password, and it didn't boot right into Windows as I
prefer. In addition, I now had two sets of configuration programs in
the
Start menu:

Microsoft .NET Framework Configuration
Microsoft .NET Framework Wizards
Microsoft .NET 1.1 Framework Configuration
Microsoft .NET 1.1 Framework Wizards

The two sets each produced different program interfaces, leading me to
think
that it appeared I had .NET 1.0 AND .NET 1.1 installed. Sure enough,
Add/Remove Programs showed a "Microsoft .NET" AND a "Microsoft .NET 1.1"
installed. I selected the uninstall for .NET 1.1 and upon completion, I
now
have the original "Microsoft .NET Framework (English) v1.0.3705" still
sitting there in Add/Remove.

Peculiar, unless this is by design and just looks funny to me.
