Windows Vista SP2

Do you have to have MicroSoft.Net Framework 3.0 installed and turned on in order for SP2 to be offered by Windows Update?

I got my Sp2 update disk from Microsoft today and Sp2 installed with no problems. I'd tried downloading it twice and it crashed my computer when installing it, that's why I was asking about Net framework.All's well that ends well.

The framework is vital to some programs and to Windows. It should offered as a download regardless. v4 is coming soon anyway.
