Is .net 1.1 framework installed on vista already?

I want to get google sketchup on my Vista machine (according to google it will work now) but it NEEDS .net framework 1.1 even if you already have 2.0 or 3.0. So do I need to install 1.1?

Update:

Well i installed it and it works, and i don't think i ever installed .net 1.1. So maybe that was only for like XP Thanks.

    If it needs .NET framework 1.1, then you have to install the .NET Framework 1.1 if it is not installed EVEN if you have the .NET framework 2.0.

    The post above me states that .NET 2.0 supersedes .NET 1.1 and will do whatever the framework V 1.1 does. THIS IS NOT TRUE!

    If a program was developed against .NET framework 1.1, then it has to be installed on the machine where you wish to run the program (regardless of whether .NET 2.0 or .NET 3.0 are installed or not).

    Hope this helps.

    No.... .NET 1.1 was superseded by .NET 2.0... likewise .NET 2.0 was superseded by .NET 3.0

    .NET 2.0 will do everything that 1.1 did, and in the same ways (to other programs)... if the google program will only work if it can find .NET 1.1 then it wasn't programmed very well. If it was programmed properly, it should work just fine.
