auto install .net framework 2



I created a deployment project for my .net 2 application in vs 2005. In the properties of the deployment project, under prerequisites i have "Create setup program to install prerequisite components" checked and the ".Net Framework 2.0" prerequisite selected. The install location is set to "Download prerequisite from component's vendor's web site".

After I create the setup file I click on the msi file and if the .Net framework is not installed on the machine it asks if I want to download it from the vendors website. If I click yes, it takes me to this (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=9832) url so I can download dotnetfx.exe and install it manually.

This is not the behavior I want. I want it to automatically download the framework and install it, then run my install again.

Can someone please explain how I can get vs2005 deployment project to do this?

Thanks!
