Every day Windows Update tries to install Microsoft.Net Framework1.1 service
Pack 1 security update KB953297 & it fails. No error code is given, simply
a message that it was not installed. According to my update history this
has been happening since October.

I've searched for advice on the MS site but it refers to a registry cleanup
tool which I can't get to work.

Searching on Google gets me to various bbs however I don't really understand
the advice given as it seems to be aimed a people with far more pc knowledge
than me,

What do I need to do please?

Tony

Try uninstalling .NET framework using control panel > Add/Remove Programs.
Then download and install .NET 3.5
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=333325FD-AE52-4E35-B531-508D977D32A6&displaylang=en

see if this cures the problem.

Thank you Neil

I see from Add Remove Programs that I have .Net framework v.1 hotfix
(KB953295), v.1.1, v.2, v.3.0 sp2 & v.3.5sp1. Do I need all those or will
the latest version do?

You only really need them if a program you are installing requests them. But
to try to get to get over your problem I would remove anything relating to
any version of .NET and then use the previous link to download 3.5 and then
let windows update get you any updates for that version.
