This page will bring you more information, as well as try to help you figure out whether or not you have the proper version of the .NET Framework installed.
The Header test

Please notice: If you're not using Microsoft Internet Explorer, the automatic test won't work. Please use the manual method described below!
Manually checking
Manually checking for the .NET framework is fairly easy. Open up the Windows Explorer and navigate to your
Windows folder (usually C:\Windows\). Now, see if you can locate a folder called
"Microsoft.NET". If you can, you may have one or more versions of the framework installed. Open up the
"Framework" folder, and look at the folder(s) within it. If a folder with the name
"v2.0.50727" is present, then it's very likely that you have the correct version of the .NET Framework installed! If not, then you need to install it, to be able to run the latest software from TSW as well as a load of other vendors.
Installing the .NET Framework
To download and install .NET Framework 2.0, please see the following page at Microsoft:

direct download link. You might be able to get it through
Microsoft Windows Update as well.
