Service Pack 1 update?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

I have Service Pack 2 and when I go to the Windows update site it says that I
need Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1. If I have Service Pack 2
then why does it say I need this update for Service Pack 1? Do I really need
this update? If I install it it says that I can not be removed.

You have Service Pack 2 for Windows XP. You do not have Service
Pack 2 for Microsoft .NET Framework. You're mixing up two
different things.

You are referring to two different products. Each one has it's own updates.
