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.
