I'm trying to install the dotnet framework 1.1 on a Windows 2000 Pro, SP 4
box. I've downloaded dotnetfx.exe and am installing from c:\temp.

This is the error message that I get: Error 1606. Could not access network
location %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools. The
folder exists and I've given full permission to it to everyone, so I don't
think this is some kind of security issue.

Here's the installation log:
