   Interesting.... nothing has been installed except an stock clean install    
   of the OS?  Is an anti-virus installed at the time of the .NET    
   installation, and is it active at the time?

   But why are you installing .NET Framework if you have no software that    
   uses it?  .NET Framework 4 is not pushed on Windows Update, it is an    
   optional update listed separately.  I don't think any .NET flavor is    
   pushed any longer for XP on Windows Update if it isn't already present    
   due to some 3rd-party software.  I'll have to look at my clean install    
   on another machine.
