That's what I first intended to do, blaah.
I decided against it for two reasons:

1. Most of the players probably don't know what dotnetfx is and if they have it, or how to check. So those would go download it off the microsoft site anyway. Hence, for them it's more convenient to include it in the package.

2. We all are playing an MMO, so I assume we all have fast internet connections. Downloading 23 MB, even if for some us 22 MB are unnecessary, is not a big deal if you have DSL or broadband.

I can put up an additional package that does not include dotnetfx though. For those who know they have it installed.

Cheers,
