How to obtain the latest .NET Framework 1.0 service pack

Service packs are used to distribute software updates and to keep a product current. Service packs include updates and may include the following that are bundled for easy download:

• System administration tools
• Drivers
• Additional components

Service packs are cumulative. Each new service pack contains any new fixes. Additionally, all the fixes that are in previous service packs are included. You do not have to install a previous service pack before you install the latest service pack. For example, you do not have to install the Microsoft .NET Framework Service Pack 1 (SP1) before you install the Microsoft .NET Framework Service Pack 2 (SP2). You do not have to install the Microsoft .NET Framework Service Pack 2 before you install the Microsoft .NET Framework Service Pack 3 (SP3).
